Anybody in the January new hire date?

I'll be January. ATP/CTP in December.

So in return for giving to charity, PDT is giving us the chance to win a ride in the last Dash flight, as well as model replicas of the "deHavilland “Dash” in Piedmont heritage livery or a large scale model of the Embraer-175 (yes, 175)"

Their words in quotations.

Uhhhhhhhh........ what??
