The future looks bright right now. It seems as though we should be flying newer larger aircraft soon, you might not have to interview for another flying job for the rest of your career, you get to pick your base( thus a/c), work rules and pay are par for the industry. As far as the upgrade time, it sucks. However, if you are low time like everybody that comes here, then you need alot of total and multi time before you meet upgrade mins. Also, the upgrades should be falling down to 4-5yrs TP and 5-6yrs jet by that time.
Plus, you get to use thAAt cool "AA"!

Little known fact about that flying is that it's just a carryover from TWA. When AA merged with TWA they let us keep the contract. God only knows what's going to happen to it when it expires as BB has expressed a disinterest in continuing the 50 seat flying...

i think a lot of people might have to leave good ole STL. Bummer I was hoping the AA connection would stick around. So now in 5 years its going to be poor little ole CHQ with one codeshare down in Houston and big brother republic taking up all the good schedules with the new "centralized" basing up north!

I'm going to make the move to STL. It's time I give up on CMH. The pairings aren't getting any better for my level. STL offers much better commutable trips so we'll see what happens.
