Default Commutair Q300

Commutair was supposed to be flying their new Dash 8 - Q300s by now, but they are not. Can anyone fill us in on what is happening?

There is a picture of one of them floating around that I saw a few weeks ago. Not sure if they are flying or just getting up to "spec" but at least one of them exists.

I believe the picture may have been taken at their hangar in CLE

Current initial class was the first one to get differences training on the -300. The FA class that just went through did it as well.

This. ^^

Just a few more FAA hurdles to jump through and we'll be flying them.

"Pilots are paid $5 override for Captain and $2 for First Officer on Q-300"
