Living in base makes this job a whole different animal, no matter who you are working for.

Quoted for truth. For the most part, suck it up and live near base and move when they close it. The exception of this being NY or LA. Whole different jawb.

Wanted to fly the 175, Better reserve rules. Flew with him and he kept trying to persuade me to leave too. Yeah no, don’t wanna go back to right seat for god knows how long but in his case I felt it was a good decision on his part for his qol.

Pretty sure new hires at XJT won’t be going to the 175 for a while unless they get more airframes.

I've heard so many horror stories about dynamic scheduling though.

Did I miss an announcement, or did the LOA just quietly expire?

There's a union email. Yes, it expired. The union wanted language in a continuingLOA to protect against travel on days off and travel up to MSP without scheduled events, as well as some language to protect instructors. They didn't get it. Therefore the 30% long call goes away until they can negotiate it again.

If you've got a long term training event in April or beyond, I'd count this as a win. If you've got reserve in April and beyond, you may count this as a loss. Depends on your perspective.

I've said it before. No software investment will solve the training problems. The company has got to address the terrible job CAE does on the sims. I'm afraid they've been training in that MSP facility so long they just can't imagine doing anything else. I'm not sure how long we've been using the PHX facility, but it is also an absolute mess .

Hopefully the union can step up and point this out to the company. Solving this problem will benefit both the pilots and company.
