I don't care where they put them. Just passing along info from a previously-reliable source who would know well before any mechanics/maintenance personnel.

Maintenance is a poor source of rumors regarding crew/aircraft basing. So are flight attendants. For example, we routinely do EJet service checks on RON aircraft in OKC. Does that mean OKC is going to become an EJet pilot base? No way no how! Are pilots going to be based in Tucson? Nope. What is significant and important to maintenance often has nothing to do with pilot/crew basing.

FAs also keep spreading insane rumors, but we have to keep in mind they can be dual-qualled and contractually cross-utilized on CRJs & EJets (so can mechanics afaik). What they hear from their managers has zero to do with flight ops--zilch.

So basically, anything an FA or mechanic or MOC source has told you about where EJet pilots could be based is very likely confused extrapolation.
