Q classes are not filling up but the 170 classes are fine from what I hear from the cka. In fact I think there are a few on a waiting list.

You get paid for the time you blocked out until you gate return. But since they didn't complete their EWR PIT leg and rest of the trip, I'm assuming, they will only get paid however long they were blocked out for until returning to gate. Enjoy that 0.5 or whatever it was guys.

God Bless.

Hey everyone,

I've accepted a August 28th class for the 170 on the Republic certificate. I'm going to have a week off between my current job and training so I was hoping to study some of the limitations or what not before I go to training. Does this link's limitations look right? Republic Airlines ERJ 170/175/190 Limitations flashcards | Quizlet

Next, any other documents that I can access online?

Thanks!

Yes that quizlet is the correct limitations. Flightsafety should send you an email to get set up on their system and there are some PDFs on there. Enjoy your week off you will have plenty of time to study when you start.

Ill preface this question by saying I'm note a smart man and know very little about the rah operation but if they're not getting people in the q classes...why not just stop telling people what plane they're getting until say...after indoc?
