From what I saw with the flow plan, when I get down there which should be around Sept1st it shows me being like 45ish of 65ish, and I heard the base might be 100 pilots when its all done.
Plus I want to live within 30 min of the airport, I would not mind RSV at all, as long as it is not , so as long as i had like 5 people under me, it would be a great base.
5 guys below you??? Really, what about that 5 guys are free at the same time, guess who's going to be in RR 1 at 5:30am???
Plus from security to D60 or Crew lounge is a long walk...been there, done that.
Remember flow plan is current, as vacancy bids goes out it's going to change...for starters in that flow plan you're looking there are about 25 guys above me (I'm a Nov 2010 hire) moving to MFE. Plus there will be more guys moving all year from MFA to MFE that got the ATR last year and still seat locked.
Just don't keep your expectations too high, it will help you a lot in this industry. Study hard...we need pilots! So bring your friends along...
