When did Colgan start the overnights in PIT? Are these the SYR turns?

The PIT crews overnight in either CKB or PKB. The overnights themselves do not take place in PIT.

OK, I was told no overnights at my interview, but that was probably because I would be staying in the northeast.

From everything I'm told, it doesn't take long at all to get the base you want, but who knows. It all depends on how much movement happens at that base, and how many people want it.

When I was there you got whatever they wanted to give you. Bidding was am ere formality. THEY SUCK. F MIKEY COLGAN...

but hey maybe it has changed...is Mikey still running the show...

I'm pretty sure that's what they did with us, since guys junior to me got bases that were farther up on my list than what I got.

But, nobody from my class got IAH or TYR, so the rest really didn't matter. If somebody junior to me had been awarded IAH before me, then I'd be ****ed. As it is, it's no big deal. I'd have had to move either way.

Plus, if you aren't comfortable with the idea of moving around, you don't need to be an airline pilot.
