What kind of offer would it be if it was only one aircraft type?

"You can have any aircraft you want so long as its the CRJ."

Just know those EP/Ls before you even show up to class. After Indoc, the first day of systems you take the EP/L test, and you can only miss 5 I think it is. If you have to keep retaking it, you'll waste time with the EP/L when you should be focusing on studying what you just went over in class, and what you're going to go over the next day in class.

As far as anything else. Just let them teach you, and study as much as you can, and find a study group that doesn't drag you down (ie get off topic, or is lazy) ASAP and stick with them. If you don't understand something ask questions.

Honestly, I enjoy flying both the 200 and 700. The 200 is a pig, and a little more demanding, but she gets the job done.

They offered me the CRJ and ERJ. I choose the CRJ due to wanting MSP so I don't have to relocate. I know a couple people that got the ERJ and one that got the CRJ because the ERJ classes were full. The interviewers actually said the CRJ is going to be the better choice if you want seniority, apparently there are people jumping over to the ERJ for a new airplane.

Yup, but I'm also on a shortfall for the Sep 17 class if someone doesn't show up

Yep, if/when they get AQP and Delta benefits for the 175 expect quite a few transitions. Albeit, most of those will be on the capt side.

Newb questions

So ERJ training is not AQP but CRJ is?
Does it make ERJ training much more difficult than CRJ?

Thanks!
