Yes, GRR should be easy. There are openings they can’t fill because not a lot of people want that base yet. Good luck!

I made about 50k with absolutely zero hustling, mostly sitting reserve, flew about 350 hours.

I think that is fairly optimistic. Min guarantee year one is currently $47k per year. That’s all that you will make in training (you don’t actually get per diem in initial training, so it’s less than that after you pay for food). That’s about 2 months, it will take about another month (unless we are backed up) to get through OE. You will have a composite line with the leftovers for another few months until you consolidate where it is unlikely that you will Break guarantee. You would have to then credit 100 hours a month (when you will probably be on reserve) for the rest of year one to get to $60k.
