If you live in base and don't mind sitting reserve for a long time, it's fine. Great airplane(s), good trips. Reserve guarantee will be equal to flying 85 hours on the small stuff. Green slips still a possibility on your X days. If you get displaced a year or 2 down the road, there are some advantages to that: Paid move, displace to anything/base you can hold. Probably not a good gig if you're a commuter

I've heard talk of a NYC 717 base but I don't know if any decisions have been made.

Great news. The poolie spreadsheet has officially died! I was offered 7 July class date today. Seeing as I only interviewed 2 weeks ago, that means everyone interviewing now will be in July and August classes. No more pool!
