I'm 31 and was told I'm five or six from the top of the class of 20. I think it'll vary class to class.

No books on day one. Just a lot of paper work.

Out of the 20 in your class, how many have jet experience? I, along with 7 others will be joining your class on The 14th as captain upgrades.

From what I was told we will not hire in the dash anymore. Especially as the increased parking schedule

How are current schedules looking like on the jet? Lots of 4 days? Are the destinations interesting or just small local airports?

Also in the 5 December class. FWIW, when I asked during the interview, I was told that "it looks like" all Nov/Dec will be jet, but will have to place a few new hires in the Dash here and there.

I can't imagine that they are done hiring for the dash. Yes they are parking the 100s but we still have 300s that need flown. I do however think 95% of new hires will go to the jet since we're taking 3 jets a month starting in Jan.
