Very high chance getting it out of training, upgrade at minimums. Most junior line holder for September is MKE based with a pilot seniority start day of feb 4 of this year and a atpctp start day of January 21. Most junior car line holder is January 21 seniority day.

I am wondering if there is a chance to see the pairings to bid out of CAE at some point. Have a couple interviews next week. CAE is driveable for me, but I am not familiar with how Air Wisconsin usually builds a schedule. If I am on duty or out of town I want to fly, not sit around. I was lucky years ago, at another regional, I didn't sit reserve at all but after a couple years they were changing pairings around and there were 4 day trips with about 10 hours of flying.

If you want to sit on reserve and not fly, this isn’t the place for you.
If you want to fly and make some good $$$$, come on aboard. You’ll fly and fly A lot. The lines in CAE are mostly 4 days with decent block. There are some 4 days. Which are actually 3 since you take the last flight from ORD and get into CAE after midnight.
I credit anywhere from 87-95 hours a month and get around 14 days off. I drive the 1:30 to CAE and don’t mind it a bit. I commuted for 19 years altogether in my airline career and hated commuting. I no longer have to worry about full flights, delays, cancellations or getting stuck and not able to find a hotel or commuting up the day before and not finding a hotel.
It’s nice to know when I block in, I’ll still be home in less than two hours instead of t e 4-5 when I commuted. Plus I always know I’m getting home at the end of each trip.

How legit is the "United Pathway?" Are guys getting the call from United? Or are you just as likely to get there from any other regional? I'm hoping to be applying soon and like what Air Whisky publishes but my school has relationship with Skywest. Thoughts.... thanks

We’ve had a few, about two per month getting hired through the CPP program. A few weren’t successful and reapplied off the street and have successfully gotten hired. So, it’s not impossible.
