Im a first year FO that jumps to year two April 1st. I bid a 50hr line because, with the raise from year one to year two, it’s basically a wash pay wise. Just hoping enough guys can do the same to keep us all employed.

I'm wondering why take a private loan with interest, when there could be opportunity to take government assistance with potentially low, or no interest in the near future.

So are pilots who were supposed to fly there going to be placed on LCR? SCR would cause problems as line holders do not have crashpads...

As a lineholder why would they be put on reserve?
