Only CRJs in COS, I think you just need to be typed in CRJ or ERJ

Yeah COS is ALL 200/700 flying, and no 900 flying. It's about 55% 200 flying 45% 700 flying. 700 is more senior, but that doesn't mean junior guys can't get 700 flying. It depends how you bid.

Just assigned a training date for October 26th in SLC. Anyone else have this date?

I've put a couple days of studying the EP/L's and have most of it down already. any other good things to study specifically before indoc that I should request from the recruiter?

I've flown both the 200 and 900 before. I'm really not too hung up on the equipment but wasn't sure what was there. I'd do DEN turns in a 200 all day long to avoid commuting again..

Contracts and future lift are figured out years in advance.

All those aircraft are contingent on getting contracts for them at mainline.

Nope. If you have the EP&L's down cold, then you're good to go. Everything else, they will teach you in class. And you want to be sure that you learn things the Skywest way, the first time (also called the Law of Primacy.) You do not want to try to unlearn something that you pulled off the Internet when you realize that Skywest's SOPs are different....

BTW I think there is now a 2 year seat lock if you pick your preferred equipment.
