I would say you get PHL or DCA right off the bat, just a matter of what you want. Driving to work your QOL will be good at AWAC. First year pay is terrible but second year is doable, but thats anywhere. Contract is light years beyond most places and they have top of the line heath care. As an FO, rsv will be very short lived at a month or three max.

What about schedule wise? I'm pulling 4-7 days off a month max out here... So the idea of 10+ off a month is mind-blowing.. Don't know what I'd do with time off... haha

The US Airways flying is contracted through the end of 2015 (71 aircraft per JR in recurrent ground school) with a 2 year extension that is dependent on meeting performance criteria. He did not say it was for all of the AC however but he also did not say it was not for all the AC.
