Also, one of the ONT captains might be opening up a crash pad for 3-4 pilots, he called me a few days ago and I might move in there if I can find a cheap crash pad car.
Frankly I was surprised to see that you decided to stay in ONT? I thought you’d moved back to Rockford? If so, wouldn't 75/SDF or SDFZ make more sense for you?

I'm pretty sure he'll be here until 65 - remember he lost lots of money when he broke his back (I hope I got it right?) and ended up being out on a medical leave for several years; I think he hadn't signed up for the mutual aid so the ordeal almost bankrupted him. I like Stilly and woudn't mind seeing him around here for a while longer...

I thought he was already over 60?

We, the junior pilots were sold out but that's all history now; there's nothing we can do about it. So IF any of the over 60 guys/gals decide to stay I'd rather see folks such as Stilly to do it, that's all.

Just moved into a crash pad a few weeks back. So far it looks like almost everyone in it bid and got awarded either SDF or ANC.
Also, one of the ONT captains might be opening up a crash pad for 3-4 pilots, he called me a few days ago and I might move in there if I can find a cheap crash pad car.

Well, I kind of screwed up thinking I was stuck in ONT but I also don't want to go to SDF unless I am 100% for sure going to be on reserve for years to come. I'd rather be in ONT regardless of living in the Midwest. I liked the flying better and I used to have much better seniority in ONT. If I would have gotten SDF on this bid, I would still be unsure. Maybe there will be another bid this year.....I might see where is sit after this displacement.

Well, the reason I will give him a bunch of crap is because of a conversation I had with him about staying past 60. He didn't seem too keen on it at the time so that's why I say if I see him here after he turns 60, I'm gonna give him crap.
I like Stilly too but I don't like anyone over 60 enough to want them to stay around.....LOL! As a matter of fact, I want everyone to retire at 55!

How much are you paying for the crashpad?

You'll be able to hold reserve. Trust me.
