Junior manning is when they have no one to work a trip, so they start at the bottom of the seniority list and force someone to work.

As far as upgrades, RAH will drop to 18 months by the end of the year, provided the attrition and hiring remain at the current pace. Only time can tell.

If you come to RAH, then you will stay for more than 2 years. So the contract is not an issue.

BINGO! This industry changes every day. Go where you can make the most money and take it from there.

but still its like buying stock. doing your research and evaluating performance and current standing still mean a lot. everything else is outside your control. do you really think republic and skywest are gonna be in any less standing in 4-5 years? no. 10 years, may be different. but who cares youll be a captain with your 1000 pic in a total of under 4 years and well on your way to another place by then.


regional lifer wanna be's have a different set of criteria. first of all they should go kill themselves (jk, but seriously). those are more the Horizon and AE types if you really want stability
