Not sure why AA into ASE counts as a new route announcement. They do it every year seasonally. And it'll probably be Envoy.

As far as I'm aware, the only airlines that fly into Aspen are Skywest, Republic, and Envoy, right?

 

The E-175 to ASE is going to happen eventually. Be ready.

 

Yes considering the performance made DEN questionable I'm sure aspen will be just fine take about 26 seats out !

 

I didnt say which routes. But ORD and ATL, probably not.

 

I thought the performance problems were an issue with the performance tables / software, not the actual airplane. Is that not accurate?

 

Can any ERJ guys tell me how training works? Is it 7 days a week? Do you have more than 1 day off at any time? I heard you bid for sims. If you don't want to write here just shoot me a PM. Thanks for the info in advance! :-)

 

The first part is INDOC this around 6 days. You may have a 1 day break if I remember. You need to study for the INDOC test. Then ground school starts this will be 2 weeks. You will not have time off during ground school to go home. Study! (as a group) Then sim and FTD you will get a a few breaks in between sim sessions and FTD . however if you are a new hire you may not have travel privileges yet or have the jumpseating down to go back and forth right away. Some of the more senior people that are used to training and know how the system works do well at taking the break and traveling. I went home for a few days it helps to just recharge for a day or two. Just make sure you are back in time. You bid in ground school for SIM time. The key is find the most senior person in the room and sell yourself and your abilities you will get your chance on the around the room meet and greet. If you have a car, If you already have your ATP. etc... Your background. be personable even funny. Getting a good sim time is key, You don't want the late one for sure. Training is straight forward just study and try to stay a day ahead of next day topic. If you have any other questions you can PM me.

 

Great info! Thanks STA323!

 

nope. Repubs tried it when they owned frontier, and were denied. Hence why they kept the (3?) Lynx airplanes and certificate around for a while before they cancelled it. Single engine performance on the Q400 and CR7 are the only airplanes that are approved/make sense for airlines i believe. I've also heard that the FAA is not approving any more airlines for ASE service, so unless you already fly there, you're not gonna.....
