CLT-PHL commute/Open Time/Trng in CLT
Couple questions for those of you slugging it out at PDT currently, if you’re good enough time help:
1). How is the commute from CLT to PHL and vice-versa? (Smooth enough given the AA & PDT hubs in both cities? Or does Hunger Games reign given AA & PDT pilot bases both places?)
2). While PHL-based, can you pick up open time out of CLT?
3). Is all training (except for ATP/CTP?) for PDT flight crews done in CLT?

2... . No.. maybe.. yes... depends how desperate they are.. there is nothing in the contract that restricts or approves it... back in the day they used to let us sit ready at phl or clt before they were hubs.
3.. we are using Atlanta and pheonix for sims..

I think we’re done with Phoenix unless they’ve renewed the lease.

25.G.5.N ... ive challenged it before and they extended a local person instead.. at the time I was told 25.G.5.A didn't apply... ohwell.... whatever... they wound up calling me an hour later to limo me to MDT.

All that being said, Piedmont should be on almost nobody's list of airlines to go to. Working here is like a chef working at McDonalds. You could get paid way more, treated way better, and actually enjoy the life that a professional should get to enjoy, by working elsewhere.
