Hey, congrats. I told you guys that they'll be running EMB new hire classes long before the next CRJ new hire class. I also expected a few of you to be added to my upgrade class.

Congrats, can't wait to see who else gets the call.

Just some advice, know the Pre-Class Study packet inside and out before you get there. If you have any questions about any part of the study packet or anything else, just PM me. I'm more than happy to help!

J.K.

Well its good to hear they're running classes again. Hopefully they won't keep the rest of us splashing around too long. Oh and congrats.

Yes, they have Indoc the first week. We may not be in the same classroom but we have the same class date, April 7th.

Poor choice of words on my part.

I think it's silly they don't mix them. Like you, I've done both EMB and RJ ground schools. It was much better with the RJ having upgraders in with you. Good luck with the upgrade, I think I'm coming back as well!

BHopper, where did you get the number "9" as the number of people in the hiring pool for the Bro? I interviewed 2/12, in the pool, no email yet.

Congrats! Glad you got a date...we need you! Don't even know if you guys will get much of a choice but FAT would be a good pick for a base. You will move up the list fast and your reserve time should be near zero! I started last April and am already up in the top quarter of FO's and I have been there since the beginning of the year. Good luck in class.....you will have fun!
