Fractional flying is unpredictable. You go where the owners want to go. I myself a west coast person find myself flying the Florida to northeast corridor most. But I have been blessed with rotations that never went east of the rockies. I commuted for 15 years from SAN to IAH/ORD/EWR. Not having the stress of looking up loads and planning my 2-3 leg commute to work/home is pure gold.

There are lots of applications in right now that have internal recommendations that they're trying to move through. It may be tough to get through the noise right now without at least an internal recommendation.

I did recurrent in April and was told 130ish was the goal. We’ve had a lot of pilots retire in the last few months. On my fleet alone 12 guys retired in April/May.

How far out are class dates being offered with the new batch of NH's? I hear 100 newbies this year with deliveries of 20 some odd jets.
