Crash was a temporary nickname given to me for, shall we say, my initial inability to place the F100 on the ground in a horizontal manner. Thankfully landings are not graded...nor should they be! I was a bit more concerned flying the ILS than I was with what altitude I should flare at. 10 feet is apparently not adequate! Works for a 172, but not something that weighs 44 times a 172.

Im on reserve in ORD, almost broke guarantee in Febuary...i have the next 4 days off and im NOT going to pick up open time. Next month isnt going to be nice to me so ill enjoy my days off. Reserve in ORD is around 4-5 months right now since they just cut a few more lines.

I have heard that AE is short 99+ FO's on the EMB in ORD. Is that accurate?

Whats the reserve time in BOS?

Much appreciated.

For the March bids the most junior composite line (monthly schedule built mostly flying and a couple reserve days) went to the FO 2nd from the bottom. I think he was off IOE 1 month. I would expect at most 2-3 months on reserve in BOS. As far as ORD FO shortage goes, they are probably more than 99 FOs short. We are completely understaffed throughout the system, so its all relative.

Thanks for the BOS reserve time.

If they're 99+ short in ORD, that must mean there is ZERO reserve time??? What is ORD ERJ reserve time?

Thanks.
