You make it sound like it’s a bad thing?

Born and raised in Beaverdale, my man! I’ve commuted West Coast, East Coast and even the Caribbean.

Trust me man. You could be living in a hell of a lot worse. I always tell people, if it sucked well... I wouldn’t commute. I’ll always be here. It’s a hell of a place to live.

I’m ORD now, and as you can already tell, it’s stupid easy. Like brain dead I pay zero attention to schedules easy. You can drive it if you really had to as well.

My first regional was flying for Air Whiskey. I was DCA based. As you know they have an ORD base now.

I really enjoyed flying for them. Great crews and a good operation. Yes it’s the -200, but I definitely miss that thing some days after flying the Bus for awhile. It was a really fun bird.

I believe bonus money is something like $50k or more now. I still have a lot of old lifers there. As of today, I’m hearing you are upgrading the second you have your 1,000 121 SIC. I spent 4 years there and wasn’t able to upgrade. Things are much different now.

I would recommend looking into them.
