If you don't mind to say when did you get the offer ? I mean after you get the offer how long do you have to wait for the class date ?

Nope, it's determined when the offer is made. If you don't have 121 experience (or come from the Arizona State Univ. aviation program), you'll only be offered the CRJ. Guys coming from other [U.S.] airlines may be offered a choice of CRJ or E-jet.

Can someone explain Golden Day bids? Or point me to where I can find more info? The Golden Day bidding manual in the bidding hub is fairly devoid of info, and I couldn't see anything in the contract other than the fact that we have it.

Are you doing line training? I.e. are you doing the thing where you pay them for 500 hours line experience on type?
Just wondering...also you really don't want to tell that to people if you end up being an airline pilot in the US of A.

Pegasus and Turkish will require you to pay for a type rating (which will cost wayyyy more than doing it in the US, since you'll be doing it in a JAA environment).
Turkish requires FAA-certified pilots to have 3000+ hours on glass cockpit aircraft >27,000 tons (which I'm sure you have by now). Go apply via CAE-Parc. I don't think Pegasus hires foreigners unless they're paying for their 500-1000 hours via a line training scheme.
The OP likely went through Pegasus flight academy, and purchased a 737 TR in addition to initial/commercial license training. Not sure if he also paid for 500 hours on type, but that's kind of par for the course in Europe these days (thank God that system doesn't exist here or half the RJ FOs with rich parents would be buying "jobs" at United/Delta/AA as we speak).
