On 1/24/2017 you posted this: "I'm a new hire about to finish IOE on the ERJ... I have a family wedding that I will be a part of mid spring. I want to be sure to have that time off... About 4 days. How can I go about doing that? I heard of golden days but am not entirely sure what those are... Is there a way to get those off for sure? Thanks!"

So are you on the ERJ or the CRJ???

How do you think we're able to hire people with 25 hours multi...?

It's logged as multi engine sim time on the 8710.

Thanks for the info, guys. Is skywest going to a home study for systems training system for new hires? Someone told me this was going to happen, but I had thought only Envoy did this. Also, what are the shared rooms like in Denver? I heard in Salt Lake for the crj the rooms are a little bit separated to give some privacy. Is it similar in Denver? Thanks

The director of training told my class they were in the works of making systems all CBT'S. Not sure the progress or details on it. Don't a lot of airlines do that?
