Well, it means how long will you be on RSV. Everything depends on the people above you. If you go somewhere everyone wants to be, you wont move fast, but if you go somewhere that no one wants to be and everyone is leaving after they can get another base, then you will move up faster.
I think LGA EMJ is about to become a very junior base in about 6 months, so if I was new I would consider it. JFK and MIA EMJ have been very junior lately, but I do not think it will last. You do not want to go somewhere that WAS junior for awhile but now people are staying, because they will be there for awhile, so you wont see much movement. Both CRJ bases have also been junior since we got some new ones, and they were hiring into it like crazy, however they have staffed them, so I do not think I would want the CRJ, esp the NY side. Thats all I can speak for, do not know much westward.
