I saw on the RPA Facebook page one base had something like 70% of all FOs on reserve with only 30% holding a line for Sep.
Indy is an outstation and as such has butt ass early start times. Like 0500 departures with 0415 shows and all that crap. They also have late evening release times. Outstations at RPA's are a commuter's worst nightmare. Have fun!!
I would rather get done with training and sit on reserve than take 12 months to complete training and THEN sit on reserve for another 6+ months like the AA wholly owned. And if you don’t have any previous 121 time you’re probably not getting looked at by those carriers anyway. All the regionals suck. Just pick one and suck it up.
