I didn't know we had a club. And no, this week we (self, hat-wearing FO recently awarded DTW commandante) discussed a whole bunch of other things on our way to/from the various places.

You "didn't know" or "can't talk" about it...like a fight club, or ______ Anonymous club?











(You know I'm messing with you right?)

I still have not received my membership card, it's because of the sweater isn't it?

 

[tcco94]

[Cory Trevor]

He sweater got me all the way through winter no problem. Love the sweater

I was unaware we have cards. Although we do have an anthem.

Is it normal to never get called on reserve once you hit your 100 hours? After my trip mid march I have not flown a single leg... Feeling like I'll be rusty when the call happens lol

Depends where you're based. Back when I was in msp I never worked.

I'm based in SEA. ERJ side

 

[Karnage]

I've hardly flown since cracking 100 hours. Usually I get one, maybe two trips during a 4 or 5 day reserve stretch. Hell, I spent more time on dead heads than actually flying last month. (MSP CRJ in case you were windering.)

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

Whaaaaa. Still cant hold SFO. Fingers crossed for next bid.

YEP. If you're on the E-Jet in Chicago, it's SOP.

I went a solid month and a half in ORD without working last year. Can't really speak for the other bases though.

 

[Cloud Surfer]

You guys will probably hate me for this, but I'm a 1.5 year CRJ FO in ORD and possibly will transition over to the ERJ soon.

I hope I get a line if I do...I've been waiting patiently.

You've been waiting patiently for a line?

Do I understand that you're planning on becoming an ERJ FO over upgrading on the CRJ?

Yeah, to each his own, but I really can't fathom any reason to do this. Your seniority is undoubtedly better on the CRJ. It's just a lateral move to a more senior airplane so you can sit in the same seat but with a way worse schedule. It's a great airplane.... But I wish I had gone to the other one and upgraded by now.

Nothing is stopping you. :stir:
