I'll say the most negative is our schedules as they SUCK and the fact we have outbases which make commuting a nightmare. But if you want to live in base it pretty good stuff because all our bases have a low cost of living. Plus if you get in now you'll be ahead of the RJ arrivals and flow is picking up.
RJ's should be Hub based. Piedmont is a gamble but it could be a really good one. Much better then republic hands DOWN. We are all enjoying the movement of the flow each month as pilots are leaving and the rest are moving up the latter.
Nice to see guys upgrade and hold atleast a buildup line in few months.
Piedmont is the best choice for a regional right now hangs down. I went to PSA before the official AA/US merger and before planned growth was announced because I saw it all coming. I knew I was going to get ahead of everything. Pretty soon tons of guys will be jumping over to Piedmont similar to what's happening at PSA. Why not get ahead of everyone? Someone hired at Piedmont now will easily upgrade to the E145 in two years and flow to American in five.
