The call out is 1.5 hrs. To ewr might be tough. No ready reserve or junior manning. I dont know how we would not lose it if we had those here.
Qol in reserve is like hell on earth. Ewr q is so short fos its incredible.
Upgrade is not going to be 7-8 years but wont be 2.
Commuting is a state of mind (so is schizofrenia ) but try to make the bestbout of it. If you are at silver , try commutair. Better upgrade times and closer to home.
My $36.62 cents
I agree with most above although if you can live in one of the bases, the 170 republic cert is doable. If you leave, avoid another Turbo prop- go for any jet to round out your resume. Ive only been here for 15 months and Im gettn out soon so seattlepilot and I have a different perspective im sure. He's been through alot of bs here at Rah. good luck to all
