thatll be the day. I'm pretty sure I'm safe in DTW. Unless for some crazy reason senior guys want DTW so they can sit reserve.

If there ever is one it wouldn't be until there is more flying announced out there and a long term plan. I would say it could be a while. Company is saying no LAX base in the immediate future.

MSP is 3 times the size of DTW so once the flow starts majority of the movement will be in MSP. Reserve is great if you live in base, a couple months ago I only worked 9 days. If you would commute it isn't too bad either. See above posts about scheduling working with you. PBS seems decent (only time I have used it). Very comfortable, my favorite part of the airplane is the fact that there is room up front for ALL your crap ( unless you are a big shot like one of the posters here and have a long haul bag) Don't see him on the list.

Well when the rampers in IAD use your bag as a speed bump, you take what you can get. Everyone of the guys I fly with are more than understanding so it works out.

For now it seems like it might work. The pairings are set up nicely I think. Time will tell though I guess.

From what the CP said in indoc... probably not for a couple of years, and only if the flying out west increases. Might not be LA, or SFO, might be something a little farther inland thats closer to the other bases. That was just his 2 cents.

There's also an outlet in the cockpit so you can charge your phone

Don't lie, you love it here. Especially sitting ready with DV. Plus, you'll be a captain before you know it when we get those United planes.

He was called out, but I still avoided the crew room like the plague. United airplanes? Are we officially merging with Mesa? I will be a capt. in no time then...

Yeah, they were supposed to start interviewing off the street this week for class dates. I talked to the recruiting lady last week, and the pool is completely dried up too. She said that they needed to hire 166 pilots, and that they only interviewed a small amount of people in Miami at the career fair a couple of weeks ago. I am sure for they will always be looking for prior 121, but I believe fairly soon that CFI's without prior 121 will be competitive just as well. If you meet the mins, throw your stuff as it never hurts. Hope this helps

I'm a current 135 FO flying a PC12. Kind of the in between I guess? Also, still working on my degree. Don't have much going for me other than a few years in the Navy.
