You will likely rethink that position within the next few months and realize you made the best blind decision of your life and didn't even know it....
IF
The rumors I'm hearing from our union guys and from management friends are proven correct. You'll have career progression at Eagle that you'll never get elsewhere until other legacies copy AA.

Are your november lines showing any increase in long overnights?
CLT showing a lot of +30 hour overnights... making your 4 day worth 16-18 hours, or your 3 day much much less. Some of us figure they were eliminating the RR nights to gear up for 117, but we still have a handful of standups (my personal favorite).
IAD, ORD, PHX crews, thoughts?

Not a single reduced rest overnight the whole month. A few just over 9 hours though.
I thought the same thing, a 117 sort of trial run, but union says it is because we got the schedules from mainline late.
I hope this isn't what 117 looks like. I can't stand wasting my life in a hotel that long.

Exact same thing in Phoenix. Out of 93 four day trips, 60 of them have 30+ hour layovers. And many of the three day trips have them too.

No rigs of any kind... yet. They are a top priority in contract negotiations currently underway.

It will be very difficult for regional pilot groups to make gains in that department. However, I hope Mesa pilots have some success there as it can then trickle to other pilot groups.

OPS CHECK GUD - help us understand something. If they hire a mid January class for 175s. What would these newhires do until mid June when the first revenue flight takes off? I mean when would they be able to begin IOE? Doesn't a Mid Jan class seem way too early? Unless they want to get ahead of the game and don't mind guys sitting around for weeks waiting.
