Also, how long will the MIA base last? I know it's anyone's guess but is it seasonal or new permanent base?
GymPilot - While Republic may be able to get you in school faster, their MIA base is showing a 1/17/2017 hire date, hence at least a 7-8 mo delay.
I just learned that Republic "may be" having some issues meeting on time performance numbers in their MIA base, so the flying "may" go back to Envoy.
I live in FLL and start class at RAH on the 5th of Sept. I prefer MIA as my base yet I may have to do some time in the LGA / EWR area before bidding back south.
It seems that things are in a flux all over, and I'm an older guy so I may be able to bid MIA in GS and get it. I may be on reserve longer, yet a :30 min drive to work beats a 3 hour commute up North.
