RAH/CHQ Feb. Classes

[7humpwump]

I have recently been offered a position with RAH/CHQ. Understand there will probably be three classes offered in Feb. Any advice from any current RAH/CHQ pilots of which airframe to pick if given a choice?

Thanks

Where do you live?

Closest major airport is RDU.

do you get to choose which company? Shuttle, Republic or CHQ?

No - they offer you a class, tell you which cert., then you decide. If you say no/holdout for something else, I don't think it's looked upon kindly, but things change daily around here, so what do I know.

CRJ(rp) will probably give you the best airframe seniority. just something to keep in mind, but that is only IAH CRP and SDF based. could be a tough commute. the other easily commutable bases from RDU like ORD(s5) or DCA(rw) are going very senior so very little luck holding them

Are they running classes for both companies or is it one or the other, alternating each month, or is there no rhyme or reason to it, just luck of the draw?

When did this CRJ stuff come into the mix? Who is going to fly those? CHQ, S5, or RPA? 200, 700, or 900?

CRJ200s for now under CHQ. Who knows what it will be tomorrow.

CHQ has a GSO Base. You can't beat driving to work.

Is GSO a 145 base? Also, how long would it take to become senoir on the CRJ considering it is new to CHQ?
