I think the last update from Crew Resources said the first base for the C Series would be SEA..should go pretty junior for those that want to live in the PNW. CG

Yeah I've heard SEA with LAX as a less likely contender as well as NYC and ATL of course. I've also heard that LAX 717 may at least shrink some.

I think the 717 is gonna be pretty fluid over the next few years covering DCI as they draw down..once the C-series comes on line..who knows! Respectfully, CG

Current upgrade to Captain is 4 months.

I haven't seen it held out of training in the last year.

Mainly NYC right now. Though in the last six months there have been drops to ATL and DTW.

Weird because I got it a month out of training on the 737 and the ae occurred during indoc

I was hired in jun of 2015. Our drop had 7er to LAX. It that was unusual. Several of my indoc mates got lax within 3-6 months on the 73n.

Most junior right now is about 400 numbers from the company plug.
