NO. That is not correct. C5 is getting 40 erj's as the original agreement. They have an option for at another 20 more per the original agreement with UA.
UA since the original announcement has given C5 additional ERJ's to replace the dash's. These additional jets have nothing to do with the extra 20 or the original 40 planes. C5 will end up with at least 81 ERJ's if the option is acted upon.
This info comes from the CEO during his presentation to the new hires and is not in any public announcement.

Just don't believe the things that you here from people that have only posted twice ever on APC. There are those that like to flame bait about the number of planes that will be headed this way. I am sure that you got the truth today while you were in CLE about where this company is headed.

Looks like all but a couple of the November new hire class went to the ERJ145 and some will get ERJ Captain right out of training. Yet another success story for a great company. You can definitely drink the koolaid. Clearly a great time to go to Commutair and get a quick path to the left seat on the 145.

Too much expansion too quick. They've got a ton of jet guys in the training pipeline - senior dash guys are moving over to the jet - and the dash's are going to start going away. I predict they can't keep hiring guys to sit around waiting in the training line. They need to stop hiring for the next few months just to handle the training backlog. This is just speculation but wait and see what happens with the current class. I wouldn't be surprised if the next few new hire classes were scaled back in frequency and then went all Dash. That would allow them to address the jet training backlog and also handle the senior guys transitioning to the jet.

Not a whole you can do to prepare, other than go buy flash cards, highlighters, and a good pen. The training at C5 is great, everyone is laid back, and it's a very relaxed/friendly environment. They will give you everything you need to succeed....all you have to do is come in with a good attitude, and put in the time studying, and you'll be fine.
