How about this one...
Let’s say you’re a lazy pilot. Which pilot bases would accommodate a shorter day, or less sectors or more days off?
Just curious of course. 😜
Thanks.

Senior ones.

There are no easy schedules but the EAS stuff tends to be longer legs fewer turns - but long duty days...

Thanks BT. I just got a job offer so looking ahead. Any EAS bases that stand out as a nice place to live for a while? I understand a lot are small towns but ideally looking for a place that would be nice to hang out on days off, some amenities like grocery, shopping, entertainment, etc? Thanks again for your words of wisdom....

Any of you know where to find shared housing with other fellow pilots?

Is there any information on this? How feasible it would be to commute to Billings from the east coast; any crash pad availability? Is the FO schedule in Billings 4 on 4 off?

Still no Tecnams flying? How difficult would it be for the FAA to approve that airplane? Really? Too bad because the busy summer season where passengers would likely really appreciate the new airplanes is flying by.... :(

I can’t wait to see them myself! They look like cool airplanes.

Check out the Tecnam Web Site.

Are there any day trips out of BIL? Or is it all 3-4 day trips? Is it likely for a new hire captain to get awarded BIL? Thanks!

Anyone know if they're actively hiring FO's? 30 hours from 500 and I meet or exceed all their other reqs,

It looks like a cool airplane. Can’t wait to eventually see both the Tecnam and the Eviation “Alice” (https://www.mvtimes.com/2019/06/21/cape-air-lead-charge-electric-air-travel/) on the ramp in Cape Air colors!!!
