I'm gonna bid the 175 just to keep @JordanD on reserve longer. 8)

Seat lock, trick!

I'm not. 8). Nice try!!!

 

[ClarkGriswold]

Depends on equipment too. I'm going on month 6 of reserve in ORD on the ERJ.

Did you have a choice on airplanes? If so that's your fault.

Heck, if you went to another airline you would probably have the seniority to hold Captain already on the heavy and be a solid line holder as an FO.

I'm not exactly complaining, guys before me sat reserve for years. I've got probably 600 pilots below me (total seniority) so it's not all bad.

I thought you wanted to end up in CA. Why are you still in Chicago?

Is one of those the one involving statutes of limitations, a miniature horse, and a 100-yard radius from an elementary school?

@JordanD Do you live in the Chicago area? I moved out that way back in october. I got a nice senority bump coming from houston.

Chicago meet and greet!

175 = no SouthernJets bennies. Apparently even when the LAX flying starts (unless DL dedicated). Trying to verify.

I do. Pseudo crashpad right next to ORD.

For sure, hopefully we can get something organized next month like everyone is trying. Got a composite line so I have to wait another few days to see what they do to me.

...when the LAX flying starts...

Any more info available about SkyW 175s doing DL flying in LAX? Or is this United flying?

The SkyWest rep at the NW Aviation Conference on Friday said that OO-flown Delta 175s were going to both Seattle and LAX later this year.

So what's going on with Compass? Are you guys losing your base there, and in Seattle? Or just dual operations in both cities?

Let me know and I'll come over too, if not already there.

If there's a planned reduction at Compass, it's not yet announced. My guess is Delta wants to increase the 175 flying but Compass is unable to provide it.
