Any idea if they give you the signing bonus and the ATP CTP or is it one or the other?

You'll be working with some awesome People. Great times ahead for Piedmont as long as we continue bringing in pilots. From what I'm hearing we have been getting them and even a few Captains from other Regionals. Word is out this is one of the better regionals to come to now as we will doubling in size.

Good Luck! things are going to be happening fast next year. Enjoy the ride.

Congratulations, always good to have a job offer in hand. Did you get the offer on the spot? What was the interview like? Regarding the Koolaid, we have all had some of it at some point in our careers.

I think you are wanting to ask the other guy. I haven't even applied yet.

I'm in class now and in my late 50's. Know others in their 50's, so the answer is yes.... I think if you have 121 time, upgrade is probably within or at 1 year.

Yes, they are preparing for it. 121 time will be golden for next year.

The upgrades will be flight-time dependent for a little while here. All of the growth will require captains asap.
