Few questions on Boutique if someone could answer that would be great;
1) What does the Dallas base look like for staffing?
2) Anyone doing more than 80 hours/month at any base consistently?
3) I'm less than 30 hours from reaching CA mins. Should I apply for the CA position or the FO position? (I know that is a dumb question but keep reading--->) I wouldn't be able to move until Mid-may. However, I really don't want to wait between positions. If HR is congested should I move forward now or just wait? Any suggestions on how to handle that?
4) This may have been covered, but training pay etc?

2) Unlikely, guys here have asked to fly over 80 hours (even heading to another busy base on off days) and have been refused.
3) Put together a cover letter and mention that. If you'll likely have PIC mins by the time you're in new hire class, may as well plan on that.
4) I've forgotten what exactly the training pay is, something like $500 flat rate for the first two weeks and then you start on your normal rate/guarantee after that, even if you're still in training. Can start collecting per diem after the first two weeks if you're not based in Denver too, though it doesn't amount to be much.

We fly a lot of doctors that commute to the EAS communities, senators/representatives, and other people that rely on EAS not just for themselves but for a number of others. I'd honestly be pretty surprised if EAS got the axe, but stranger things have happened this year. Another reason to keep my instructor ratings current...
