What is the most Junior base for Shuttle America

[pa30flying]

I am in the March 19th class on the Shuttle side, just wondering what the most junior base is?

KIND is most junior next CMH and then ORD which you wont see for at least 2 years

Thanks a lot

What he said. Welcome, btw.

ORD is ripe for alot of movement - senior FOs, most commute. CMH and IND are equally junior (for the most part). IF and only IF another shuttle base opens (ha ha), ORD may go real junior, who knows.
How many in the class??

 

[pa30flying]

Not sure. Half in the interview class were Mesa (including myself). There is also a Republic class on the same date.

I have my RAH Interview on Thursday (March 08).
What are the chances of DCA, LGA, PIT or RIC (First two 1st and 2nd choice).
I am from Los Angeles, CA origionally but would love those out of training or so?
Don't know which side I will go into.

1400TT 126 MEL 1 Turbine
4 yr. degree

Thanks

I'm guessing 145, but who knows. Therefor, LGA or IND (center of universe). They don't like to put GA, or <1500 hrs in the 170, not because it's a rocket ship, but they don't have good results from GA folks going to it - too much automation, etc.. That's not to say it won't happen, but past experience is saying this.

Like they said IND or CMH you can probably get right out of training. If your hoping for ORD, forget about out it. A lot of people on the waiting list ahead of you.

How long before guys are able to hold a line (dont mind sitting reserve, just trying to get a few ideas) and do reserve guys do much flying? I was looking at KIND.

At this point its moot, we are so shortstaffed, that even if you get reserve, you will be flying alot, At least on the Shuttle side

 

[SkywayFO]

You will mind being on reserve, trust me.

Is the IAH base senior for the CRJ??

 

[8HourPilot]

Mmmmmm ORD movement....that would be nice. Now let me get this straight, one of the mod's is on the 170? WTF?
Hey Aero......give me a shout, we got strategy to talk of.

 

[8HourPilot]

Go Bronco's.......:beer:

You will mind being on reserve, trust me.

 

[pa30flying]

I've been sittin' 60 hrs of ready reserve a week, dont think it can get to much worse, but been wrong in the past.

I know Shuttle FO's in ORD that are on pace to upgrade at the end of the year, who are still on RSV.

 

[TraneOfThought]

You can forget LGA thats closing by june as far as the 170's are concerned, CMH i thought was the most junior, I hope i can upgrade to the 170, but Im not gonna wait either I got moves to make I want to be out of the regionals by '08

 

[8HourPilot]

I believe it (CMH) is.....It aint ORD, I can say that much.

hell, 2 LGA FOs tried to upgrade from reserve, they made it but were bumped from class when they shrank it.
