If you're interviewing at Colgan/Mesaba, I would hazard a guess you'll either wind up in LGA on the Saab or EWR on the Q400. We won't know until the final SLI award comes out if there will be fences or what those fences will be, so your guess is as good as mine as far as bidding to a jet. Personally, I'd stick with whatever gives you the best QoL rather than basing it on flying a jet or a tprop. Looking at the final on the latest vacancy, I'd say reserve in DTW is gonna be short. Reserve in JFK is gonna be not that much longer. I'm getting displaced to JFK CA next month, and I'm going to be coming in almost half way up the list on the CAPTAIN side....
