Lindy---wait until you're actually an airline pilot and not a "trainee" and you'll find out that there are probably more vacancies for crashpads than there are pilots wanting to pay $2-300/mo. Even if you found one now---you have several months until you're really in the market for a crashpad. They're popular for guys commuting on reserve, but at my airline a lot of guys (i.e. with four-4 days/month) will spend the money on a hotel just cause they don't want to stay with 16 other people in a 2 bedroom apartment/IKEA bunk bed and it doesn't cost that much more.
