Use the aviationinterviews.com study guide and interview feedback posts for Cape Air. They are very accurate and up to date. Good luck.

While generally BOS runs senior, this isn’t accurate. This summer someone is holding Boston as a captain with around a year of seniority. Second there is no typical BOS line, it tends to be filler for gaps in what the outstation captains can do schedule wise mixed with a bunch of cape and islands runs.
The best bases both for FOs and Captains tends to be EAS route outstations. Build the most time with the most humane schedules. The flip side is living in those places and the sometimes challenge of finding reasonable housing.

Unless something changes drastically, it’s very unlikely a newer captain will be able to hold Boston with any consistency, if at all, and you shouldn’t try and give the impression that it’s otherwise.

Hi everyone,
I start training next week at home and then go to Hyannis the following week. I am a Captain candidate. How long does the training in Hyannis take? Is the in-airplane training in preparation for the ATP checkride also in Hyannis? I have heard varying accounts of the length of time spent in training, hence the question.
Thanks,
Mahesh

Billings, tends to run junior but these things shift with time.
Training? Not sure for a direct entry captain, but initial FO training and qualification easily takes a couple months. So for a new FO, 2 months. Then PIC upgrade, maybe another month, then ATP maybe two weeks...
Tecnam? Could be any day now... That’s a guess. Not in the official loop, and if I were would be more discreet on a forum.
South Africa? Not that I’m aware of.

According to this article they already have one and that they have another 7 to be delivered this year based on other things that I've read(the wikipedia and links on the new tecnam).
