Yeah when I was in FlightSafety for the sim ride, there was a guy in the current training class who was from my school, and he said they are taking 4 people from every other class for the ATR, so that puts my class as the one that will take 4 for the ATR, but I guess I won't know for sure until I get there. Do they do the assigning for what aircraft on the first day of training?

No, its a few days into the class. I want to say the 2nd day you bid and the 3rd you get your award. But you'll all have it figured out the first day by the vending machines. ;)

What hotel were you put up in during training?

Redroof, they moved us out. Something about rats, crime and Marijuana smoke moving through the vent system.

:eek:

haha nice, I'd stayed at the RedRoof when I came down for the interview, I wasn't too impressed but at least it is very close to FlightSafety and the GO building. I think it would be cool to be put up in the Renaissance hotel with a balcony room facing the field, but then that might be too distracting for me to study my systems, etc. LOL

I was at the Holiday Inn Select. About a 5 min. drive, but it was nice. They should call you before class starts and tell you what hotel you are in.

Alright, I'll just make sure to call if I don't hear anything within a week of my class date.

Thanks for all your help guys!!! :-D

What is the upgrade time in the ATR vs the 200?

Also, since the ATR is much slower than the CRJ, wouldn't an ATR pilot be able to have more block time, and therefore make more money than a CRJ pilot, or are the routes structured to where it doesn't make a difference?

ATR upgrade will fall below 2 years in a 2-3 months... CRJ upgrade will take a a bit longer to hit 2 years.
