I love JFK only cause I live here...

I wouldn't count on BOS anytime soon. It seems like more and more of the BOS flying is going to Big Sky and Chautauqua. I used to do trips in and out of BOS every day, and now I havent been to BOS since August. (But that's just my schedule) Plus, Delta losing some gates to Continental isn't helping things either.

From: Displaced FO on reserve forever

I heard from a check airman that the reason no one showed for that class was because the training department goofed and never notified the people they had booked for the class. Or something along those lines. Apparently everyone from that class was put into the next class.

Hopefully they can keep 'em coming, I need seniority!!

I just got an interview offer from Comair. Either the 14th or the 27th, havnt heard yet. Comair is really where I want to be and CVG would be great because I have family there. Any words of advice from you all that have been here a while would be great!! By the way my TT is 700/35 not sure if they will want more multi time after the interview or not.

I'd much rather be in JFK and have a good line, than hang out in a double wide in KY with imbred jed and talk about how much reserve sucks. Just my .02 sorry if your from KY.

I may not love JFK itself, but NYC is growing on me. I had the weekend off and just stayed in the city cause I really didn't feel like going home. I went into the city the last two days, watched the NYC Marathon in Central Park. I walk everywhere forcing me to exercise. Go to the Kew Club with the guys in my crashpad. I wouldn't have this in CVG. It would actually cost me more to live in CVG then here. I'd have to buy a car, make payments on it, live in "suburbia" where I nothing happens. Here I can have a few and walk or subway it home. And I grew up in Texas too. You'd think I'd hate it.

If you are forced into a base other than CVG, you probably wont be there long if you want a transfer. Good choice on Comair, they have a great training program and will do a lot to help you get through.

That is exactly what I had when I went in for my interview. They called me 3 hours after the interview ended and said you're hired, but you must go get 25 more multi hours. 2 Weeks later, I had a start date.....

JFK vs. CVG

I do enjoy the captains I have been flying with from JFK. But I haven't flown with many from CVG so I couldn't tell you which place is better. My commute is easier to JFK and that is the only reason I'm still there. Everything else is a hassle; from the Q runner to the ramp. If I could commute to CVG I probably would have put in for a transfer. And I would buy an "airport" car, not something to make payments on.
