As far as transitions to the ERJ... they've been pretty much non-existent for the last 2 years. I think they ran one class about a year ago and cancelled another one or two.

how many of those flying lines are DL? I wouldn't count on UA flying lines out of SLC to far into the future.. UA wants out of the 50 seaters also.. Right now they are forcing the flying with DH’s. Pretty soon that will be hard to do. Add in the Charter side proposal to serve SLC/DEN-CYN… that takes some more flying away for the SLC OO bid packet..

I have a class date for 3/27/2023 and I'm super excited. But, if everyone is being pushed in January and February, that is making me nervous.
I was planning on moving at the end of February so I don't know if I should give my landlord notice now or pay for another month with the uncertainty of when I would be able to start (let alone tell my current job). I'll be bugging anyone I know at OO and following this thread closely.

My friend is currently going through SkyWest training for the E175 and he said the wait is crazy. Between indoc and ground school, he had 6 weeks off and he will likely be getting more time off soon so SkyWest can move more CAs through.
