Quite junior as an EMB base. Much more senior as an RJ base.

For FOs it's junior in both planes. For CAs is junior for the EMB and senior for the CRJ

what are the junior bases for crj and bro pilots @ skyw anyway?

 

[Spicepilots]

For the EMB right now, mostly the CA system bases; most bases either have no one with a standing bid, or just a handful waiting to transfer in. Recent classes have had people getting PDX as well; pretty much everything but SLC and DEN, which both have 20 or so waiting to transfer in. For the RJ, it's a toss up, with ORD being most junior, but again, some people have gotten SLC right off the bat. Most of the current hiring is for the EMB; June's class is rumored to have 50 new hires, where the new RJ class is somewhere around a dozen.

No one is wanting to transfer into FAT as a EMB FO, so you may have it straight from class.

Fresno in the summer? What's not to love? Especially on a Brazilia with it's lovely APU capabilities. uke:

Let's just say i'm in the top ......................um......................7 in FAT and I've got 15+ with the company. It's pretty senior, but not as senior as say PSP or SLC.
