Good advice...I kinda wish I started out in the Bro. Pay is the same for the first year, and If you really, really, really want some RJ time, you can bid over after the first year. You also wont sit reserve for ever because they are short on pilots.

Congrats on the upgrade...
I heared they don't mix the new hires with the upgrades in the EMB classes... Don't know why (or even if it's true) just what someone told me a while ago.
The same sapa rep (MG) told me to "hang on" cause it's going to be a rough ride for a bit. I know it's par for course with this industry but, I got the impression that with the uncertainties of the very near future, (oil, Delta cutbacks, etc...) it will probably get worse before it gets better. He was talking specifically about the number of lines and amount of flying. Too bad for me, I was soooo close to holding a line and now I will slip deeper into reserves.
I really hope they can find a way to bring on every one on from the hiring pool. I can't imagine it's very fun sittin, and waiting. Good luck guys!
