I didn't live in base so the pay that I quoted was just straight pay. I left before I could hold a line, but guys from my class were averaging about 6-9 months in PDX GEG and BOI that was almost a year ago though so I'm sure it has changed since then.

Just read somethin from good ole Gene's corner that mentioned more specific language for QX FOs jumping to AS. Did I read that correctly? Does that mean to read as a "flow" starting or just more specific about the process; attending job fairs, having 2 years on property, etc.

The way I understood it was "Alaska's hiring window will be open again some time. We'll let you know."
