Once @autothrust-blue pointed out my Simple Jack PBS error I'm able to get pretty sweet LCR lines. Not brave enough to commute on a 12 hour call out though.

I wasn't either.... if they called me at midnight there were 2 flights I could grab that got me there but I was way too chicken to test that.

Ahhh yah, the dreaded commute. I'm local and I dont think I will go back to RE1/2 unless I am forced to. What could you have done do not get a LC line? haha Line 7, all your reserve lines!

Same. Although I live in base really. But an 8pm call for an 8am show would basically leave me with a 6 hour drive as the only option. No thanks.

A few that I know of, I missed the last meetup a couple months ago. I'll have to see if I can make time in my busy schedule of sitting around with my phone next to me.

Problem is as a commuter I'm in the 9-9 RVS but I'd try to meet up. If we did it at the Armada room at the quality inn pilots get discounts and I would already be there. 8)

The LAX-SFO commute on long call worked out well for me. There's only 60 flights a day though.. ;)

Might be reading your post incorrectly, but it's a 2yr seat lock in equipment if you choose your type as a new hire. If assigned it's a 1yr lock.

Transitions incur a 1yr lock,unless you want to go back to your previous equipment, in which case it's a 2yr lock. That doesn't apply to you if you've been bypassed due to "company operational needs".

I'm still waiting my ERJ class date for ORD. They're telling us bypasses it could happen in August.

When interviewing they asked if I had a "preference" I gave them my preference. They sent a job offer with the aircraft a few hours after the interview. So because I was hired into the aircraft I told them I had a "preference for" does that incur a 2 year 1 year seat lock???

Who do I talk to to get answers. So far recruitment couldn't give me an answer nor could the person they told me to contact. They told me to talk to my Chief Pilot which seems odd.

If you got preference it's a 2 year seat lock as far as I know.

SkyEast leadership, excuse me management, remains silent on the future - at least nothing more beyond saying "nothing is changing."

I've heard it before and seen it before.

That said, the best source of authorized information appears to be only from SkyEast's recruiting department and social media channels.

In short - it means more of "not sure where this train track ends."

You still haven't made any type of point..... SKW was already flying 50+ trips a day out of DTW
