Pretty good post. I’m on year 7, and have generally had a good run (but I was on the front to peak of the last hiring wave for once).

I will definitely vouch for the quality of our pilots and the PM option. I don’t technically live in base but drive just under two hours which still offers some premium flying opportunities but not like being within 30 minutes let’s say.

Upgrade times are coming down (fingers crossed the economy doesn’t tank) which is fine, but we do have work to do with the contract.

Yes, you can make money, but we can also capitalize on vacation time as I do. I usually turn one week into three.

You can work the system or easily fly your line and make 100 TFP per month without any extra work.
