Hate to ask the question that gets asked every few pages here...been reading for awhile and just seeing what people say. Trying to get out what the recruiters say to what I should expect. Going to class Jan 2 on the CRJ. My CTP is Dec 7. I heard I'll get paid the minimum 65 hours and I'll get that check in my ground school, that's correct right?

I want to take a junior base on the CRJ preferably would like to live in MSP. Are the trips any different or QOL going to be drastically different between that or ORD? Also, I'm a cadet that has access to skywest online. I just can't figure out how to calculate the time on reserve like you guys do? I know how to find the vacancy report and senority list for bases but how do you guys figure out how long it is to hold a line? Also, you're saying the time to hold a line is including ground school, sims, IOE? I preferred trying to get DEN or COS but it seems like it might take a long time to hold those bases on the CRJ especially since they're cutting back flying out of DEN, it's a long shot I assume? Will someone help with this when we get into ground school?

Greatly appreciated!
