What would the chance a new hire could get that assignment.
Thanks again
My info is a bit dated but it really isn't anything special. There is a reason it goes very jr on the FO side. The bid lines are 60 days, that doesn't mean you are going to be gone for 60. You will only see three airports BWI-OTP-KBL and not make that much more money. If you are willing to fly into places like KBL apply to Atlas and make a good bit more money.
Edit: There isn't anything top secret about the flying. You can track the flight on flightaware and their mess up is on the NTSB website.
