Just found out today i'm in the pool for RP. Also have a class date at Skywest (tough call) and trying to figure out which certificate is best at RP so I know what to say when I get an offer. Couple questions for Republic guys. I know some of these questions dont have firm answers, just looking for ballpark info. Thanks in advance!
1) Reserve times in Shuttle, CHQ, and RP certificates and the most junior bases.
2) LGA base: How long until a new hire could hold it? Will it be around long, will I be on reserve forever and will it soon shrink?
3) About how much, everything included could a second year FO plan to make? About how much for a 4-5th year CA?
4) Just curious b/c I do only day trips. What would an example of a 3-4 day trip look like, in terms of where you fly? Long/Good layvoers or not really?
5) What you think the best certificate would be to go to at this point? I think it would be RP since they are getting new 175's soon so reserve should be finite. But maybe the CAL side would be good?
6) I know upgrade time is impossible to predict. Ive heard around 2 years for all RP. Anyone see that going up substantially?
7) Any comments for the Republic vs Skywest (CRJ) decision I soon have to make.
Thanks again!
