Y'all, I'm trying for AA like just about everybody else. I can't seem to find the seniority list for bases. Anybody know how senior LAX is for new hires? And what airframe an LAX new hire would likely get if that's even possible? Thanks.

LAX 737 FO was awarded to the 2nd to most junior pilot at the company in the Jan 9th Class drop. Basically immediately if your on the 737 I’d say

I know there is no 100% sure answer to this. But, after a decade and 1 month of flying the two Fan Sh!T Can and lawn dart looks like the roots on my regional boots are finally breaking away. Looks like March 20 for me* of course something could change until I’m actually in the class of course. I’ll be 35 and 2 months. I’ll be a middle of the packer I’m sure. So what.. as it is today is the right plane to bid to get to DC, and maybe how long could I be waiting. I’ve moved to every base to avoid commuting. But, now I live in Annapolis and won’t lie, kind of stressing over a NY commute. I’ll be filled w gratitude whatever I’m awarded, but I want to drive to work. Philly is two hour drive or less, but from what I’ve heard from ppl based in DC they are all very happy there. Any help to me, Jonny Brite Stripes would be appreciated.

Marginally better on the 737...Sept 2017 hire vs May 2017 on the AB. But either way will get you there reasonably quick <1 year, YMMV.
By the way...what do you fly? I’ve only ever heard the F16 called the lawn dart and it doesn’t have 2 fans...are you on the Dash?

Thank you for the info. Emb-145 civilian dart. Where the motto should be “if you’re sitting next to a fat guy. You are the fat guy.” 1 by 1-2 seating.

The DCA-LGA commute is probably one of the easiest out there. 2 flights every hour on DL and AA and lots of the AA flights are mainline so you can book the jumpseat.
