I always got over 100 hours credit while on reserve. If you want to work and make it known, scheduling will abuse u. Also when you are extended on reserve you will do very well with additional pay!

June seems to be the winner in the popular opinion poll. Purely unofficial though.

Is this as an fo, ca, or both?

Also, if you were flying that much, did you sneed a crashpad ?

Currently a cfi, really would like to live in Philly and not commute. I will be at 1500 around september and currently Piedmont is my number one choice. The only thing that really concerns me is that it seems almost everyone wants to get away from 50 seat jets like the 145 and most regionals don't even fly turboprops anymore. I just don't see the long term plan for piedmont and hope it won't turn into a comair situation. Can anyone enlighten me on this

I am an fo. I am usually flying about 80 to 90 hours, sometimes less but there are many times when your extended or extra flying. If they know u want to work.. You'll work.. Our contract allows for many ways to get extra pay.. Just read the contract. I didn't fly today but I just made more than minimum.

I haven't used a crash pad with our commuter policy, but if your at sby you'll need a place to stay. I also have a car available to me. There is so much flying available. We have almost a 1000 hours of open time available through the end of the month for fos...

I also wouldn't be surprised that a 170/175 plan announced for us once we are going with the 145s.
