Not on the CA side. I couldn’t even hold LC for Sept (4th from the bottom.) Straight SC solving in Layer None

It’s funny because in Boston guys my seniority can’t even touch reserve, they get lines by default.

Regarding life on the 190, anyone able to post a typical trip. Assuming 3-4 day with lots of NE shuttle stuff?

It depends on your seniority. I’ve been here since Nov and a typical trip for me is a 1-2-2-3 or 3-2-2-1 in legs per day. I get most weekends off and all of my trips are commutable to/from DTW on mainline flights meaning I can book the jumpseat 8 days out. I usually do four 4-days per month at about 21 hours each. I avoid the NE shuttle flying like the plague so most of my days consist of a IAH, MCI, JAX, or ATL overnight or turn with an occasional PVD, PWM, BTV overnight. Most overnights are 15-18 hours.

What about life for the in-base guys? Any out & back day turns if you do the shuttles?

There used to be but the last month or so they’ve disappeared likely due to ACD implementation. The few that we have are mostly shuttle flying. IIRC, almost 90% of our flying for Oct are 4-day trips.

How is life for LC and SC on the 190? If I could sit either at home (90 min away) that would be a sweet deal. - thx for the info so far

SC doesn’t have a minimum report time. The only requirement is a reasonable time via ground transportation. However, the unwritten rule is 3 hours so you’d be perfectly fine living 90 mins away. LC is a 12 hour minimum callout though you typically get more than that. Living 90 mins from base is huge and will make for a great QOL.
