FAT is a small CRJ only base if you weren't already aware.

There are about 50 CRJ FOs that want to and should be able to transition over to the 175 right seat next year that also want to be out west. Most of those are already out west which should help with movement in that seat. There aren't any 175 FOs wanting to switch to the CRJ.

Remember also that if you are planning on taking the first available upgrade it will be on the CRJ out of MSP, ORD, or DTW. Some time in the aircraft would be nice and make the upgrade easier. Upgrades or holding the left seat in a domicile west of MSP will take significantly longer.

-- It looks like getting SFO on the CRJ shouldn't be too hard. Not a lot of pilots have it as there first choice.
