It's only May. CRJ pairings are brutal! (ASA)

Hope he has a creative explanation for his "SSDs" during his interviews at mainline

No wonder legacy xjet guys think we're a bunch of pusses.

SKYW F/Os are looking at about a 6 year upgrade, they cannot even see an upgrade, much less a mainline job, thanks for playing though. If a regional pilot doesn't use SSDs as a schedule enhancement tool they will have a very limited life, 10 days off guaranteed, plus a commute, equals a divorce or 2, and kids that say to their mom, "who is that guy in the Halloween costume" she says "that's the UPS guy, your real daddy is on a 4 day"

Why even consider leaving when the Mitsubishi MRJs are just a few tantalizing years away? It's so close you can taste it... Who would want to give up the opportunity to fly a "mainline-like" jet like the MRJ at sagging regional rates? Nobody rational! :laugh:

Thats not the only reason I'm sure....

I was flying with a F/O who had printed his schedule out and in cruise he drew lines through several locals and 2 days. I asked him what the lines were for, he replied those are SSDs. I asked what those were, he said Scheduled Sick Days. I sprayed coke out my nose! News flash SSD are in pace at your place of employment too, ya just have to deploy them.

You shouldn't be snorting coke in the first place!!

Don't need to upgrade at a regional to get a job at a mainline.
