Just heard that Horizon in coming to CWU for their direct hire program on November 27th.

The Dec class is 4 200, 6rj and 7 q400. They are discussing cancelling the RJ so stay turned. I hope they run the class then reserve would be short. With 70 FO coming on before the end of spring things are going fast for Horizon standards.
Did anyone see the next bid in the RJ? there are a few SEA layovers and looks like we are going to be flying the RJ to BIL instead of the Q400. Sweet.
Wendall if that is you, call me and I will help you out.

New minimums as of the 16th (per Horizon websight) are 750TT 50 multi!

What's the time-frame for phasing out the Q200?

Oh, how I hope this is true. Just a week ago I was told by a Q200 instructor that in the last staffing meeting it was made clear by management that nobody would be hired into the Q200. I guess they changed their mind when those cancellations started piling up last week.

Hehe, that sounds about right. It's kinda reassuring, actually...time will pass and things will change, but the sun will rise tomorrow and QX management will always be QX management...

Anyone??

We are hiring 70 by MArch in all the aircraft. That should mean something on the reserve time. There are 12 reserve lines in the RJ and some people bit reserve. There are 6 in class now and another 6 in the DEC class. The Q400 is going to be quick, 5 in class now and 12 start class on Oct. 31, then 5 on Dec 17th.

What's the latest on the contract??

The contract is in progress. Who knows though.
