Is that 121 time at time of interview or class date? What if that little number is mis remembered?

Default Headed to Envoy..........

Greetings! I was hoping you all could shed some light on a few things for me. When it comes to aircraft selection, which aircraft/base is the best for career advancement? I have heard some planes fly longer routes, thus building your hour level faster and allowing for earlier upgrades. Do certain bases have better schedules than others? I guess it all boils down to, what is the fastest way to build hours/experience? Thanks.

This is an extremely loaded question with too many variables. No one can give you this answer accurately over the course of a 1000 hours. It's just not possible.

Prior 121 with most time.
Age.

Letter Of Agreement (LOA) it's a way to solidify the plan between the company and union without having to have the pilots vote on it. Usually grey or small matters will be under LOAs.

So the RTP guys are still by age, but get whatever is leftover after the others choose?

What's the most junior base been lately?

At the moment, LGA has the highest line values. That is subject to change.

If you live in base it is easiest to pick up OT to build hours fastest.

Go to NYC E 145 for hours. Go to DFW whatever you can hold for career advancement in the form of working at the schoolhouse or with the union positions available

You get to sell out your peers, this would look good to management and then they will offer you a management job.
