So the aircraft will either be ERJ/EMB and no mention of the CRJ?
Not sure if this is applicable to you as I am coming on an E3 visa, any idea about the ATP-CTP training, hard/easy?
Thanks again.

So it's in line with the rest of United's "exclusive carriers"? That's not very good seeing as all of those are very low on work rules, pay and career progression. (Commutair, Gojets, Air Wisconsin, TSA, the list goes on).
"I'm happy with my OPPORTUNITY". That's the same slogan Great Lakes used to get people in the door. The regional airlines for Delta and Amrican have already moved on to consolidation and better working environments for their employees. United and this "DoSomePilotStuf" are caught in the ice ages and don't get it.

I guess I do have the advantage of a hopeful long term outlook, because I have no intention of staying here. It must really suck to work at a regional and have given up hope of ever making it to a real airline. I can see why you would be such a miserable being.

People should know what they're getting themselves into, before they get themselves into it. If everyone in this industry had your attitude, we'd all have 8 days off a month and be paying for 75% of our health insurance costs.
The bottom line is the Union sees new hires as a direct threat to their agenda. The Union does not want new hires at this company. They have made that very clear.
