I'm just looking for some opinions from you guys. Now, I've read all of the stories about how RAH has a terrible contract, long upgrades, etc. Is it really that bad? Would it be more beneficial for me to try to get on with someone else and deal with a commute to ORD or somewhere else? From everything I've heard, it seems like it'd probably be better to just deal with the negatives there and be able to live in base than have to commute. Anything else I should consider?
Consider this. Probably less than 1% of each pilot group are represented on this board. And the ones who are here are typically bitter towards all airlines other than the one they work for. Look at the posting history of some of these people who consider their opinion to be gospel. When it comes to asking the Internet for advice concerning your career, consider the source.
