I will occupy 1 FDJ and 1 of the other jumpseaters will occupy the other. And we always take 2 JS when we need to, always. Never have a been with a CA who said no to having 2 JS in the FD.

Well we have 1 FDJ and the extra FA JS that a Republic pilot will gladly take if it's available to get an extra pilot on. So although we don't have 2 FDJ to offer you do have a greater chance than other regionals of getting on since we have that extra option
