Thanks.
I assume you're talking Republic Airlines.

My class just got our base assignments. We finished ground and start sim training next week.

Bases awarded to new hire FO's were -

PHL (10)
PIT (6)
CMH (4)
DCA (2)

Of our class, the junior guys ended up in PIT or PHL. Anyone that wanted DEN or IND ended up in CMH or PIT. I'm not sure where you live or what base you're interested in, but this is the most recent placement of new hires.

As far as a career here, well its a fairly young company (Republic Airlines), that is experiencing a lot of growth. The bottom line is though, that our flying is outsourced. Cut off the supply, we lose. Thats the only thing that scares me. I don't need to fly a big Jet to be happy, but I like the stability (if you can use that word in this field) at the Majors.

So far, I'm impressed with Republic and I'm definitely excited to work here. We've got guys that have been working with RAH for 10+ years and they truely love working for the company. I think that says a lot about the management team. Our Pres./CEO seems to be a great person who might actually care about his employees. Maybe thats just the kool-aid talking though, but I'll see in a few months on the line.
