Here at QX, I’ve seen Q400 and E175 flight hours flip flop in a matter of 3 months. Unless you’re management, you likely won’t see it coming. If y’all have a CJO in January, I’d take it. The Q will make you a better pilot, and if you want a meal at FL350, upgrade into the E.
That said, at the moment things look great for Q FO’s wanting to build time fast. But from a commuter’s standpoint, I’d steer clear of a 2 leg commute unless you make the big move.
A meal at FL350? At QX? You mean once a month, but only if the flight attendants don’t eat the leftover First Class meals first?
Oh, you meant the Qdoba you went and got from all the way over in the A gates on your quick turn in Seattle. Gotcha.
Heck, it’s almost ozone season again, so we won’t even be allowed up to FL350 pretty soon.
