Speaking of PBS, if I wanted to bid for individual trips does each trip number need to have its own block? Or can you just throw them all together in no particular order and it will sort it out?

Thanks,

I don't even think the pairing numbers have even been posted yet. Or I'm looking in the wrong place for some reason.

Unless you're top 10 or at least top 20, make sure you back up your specific pairing requests with more bid groups, or it's going to give you trash.

Yea I got a whole bunch of stuff after it as a fail safe. Just figured I would learn how to do it and just put them at the top of my bid groups, then have it work its way down.

Ok, so what happens after you've used up your two times in 12 months?

Most likely....nothing (besides putting a useless UFW on your schedule). It's amazing what people are getting away with these days.

PM if you don't want to divulge your salary, but what do most actually take home, what with extra flying hours minus health insurance and other things that get deducted? What is a typical check first year? (Trying to figure out what I can possibly afford for housing or how many roommates are needed lol)

Also.. If you're DC based, do you ever get flights to the west or midwest? I've heard Dallas is mostly out and backs.. and Phoenix not a real possibility at first.
If you're looking to 'do your time and move onto a major', don't come to Mesa. The movement in that direction for our group in comparison to other regionals is pathetic. (Even our qualified Captains are being passed up for other company's less experienced FOs.)

I'm sure those FOs have 10 internals, college degree, perhaps a masters and probably 5,6 k hours. Plus a good GPA and good driving record. Why does TPIC matter that much? It's all about going to the right place at the right time.
