some info about the CBTs
-they have to be done on a PC or laptop (no iPads , phones or other devices) so if you plan to do them on the beach bring your generator or a long extension cord and have a good wifi connection
- there is over 40 hrs of material if you just step through them as fast as you can. if you are former 121, a lot of it is refresher material like going to re-current. But if this is you first gig you will need to spend some time going through them. Even if you are former 121 you will need to learn all the CP op specs and company rules to get through some of the tests, so that takes time to look them up. it will take more than 40 hrs of actual time on the computer
- add some time for being frustrated with the software. I had several modules that I would complete and then it would not give me the green check mark and let me go to the next one. I had to call the 365 help desk 6 times. Their standard answer, "try a different browser".

bottom line, treat it like you are in a ground school that you have to go to a classroom 5 days a week.

At the Town Hall meeting management said we are adding some cities in Sept. Fairbanks, some place in Canada, then a few in the East.

They also said no to the rumor of a new domicle and no new airplanes.

Delta is moving everything to Terminals 2 & 3 at LAX by this time next year.

Well... Thanks.

Now don't be arrogant but its just the typical regional shuffle.

Who gives a crap honestly none of the routes belong to anyone. I'm at OO and I wish these routes were mainline. I could give two craps if compass got it or SkyWest got it.

^Thats a nice thought but its not reality.. 20+ years in 121 realm and im convinced the regionals are here to stay...

scoobydoo

Touché.

Filler.

I rember my career expectation at any regional was turbo prop captain making 50-60k a year. I blame the Majors. Scope should have been all jets mainline.... Problem solved. To late for that...

Skywest can have Fairbanks too, please. Please. Pleaaaaaase.
I'd rather deal with a GDP for SFO than that FAI circus.

I'll be sad if we lose too many of the SEA-SAN's though, that's a nice flight and I enjoy the layover. Looks like in September two of the dailies are us and one is skywest and one gets taken over by the 717.
