PDT News and Rumors
How hard is it to get PHL for a new FO? Roanoke? I'll be out of RDU so I'd have to commute either way. Leaning toward TSA since they have RDU base but also wondering if they're going to survive with AA throwing down the gauntlet. Also, what is reserve like? Roanoke would be about a 3 hour drive for me.

Aren't TSAs 145s going back to Envoy? I can't keep track of the musical airplanes anymore.

- Almost entirely 4 day trips with an occasional 3 day. I think it varies a bit more at the other Dash bases.
- Between 2 to 6 legs per day, with 4 legs per day being most common.
- Min days off is 11; for October only 3 lines in ROA had min days off, all the other lines had more, but not more than I think 14 days off.
- The lines are mostly separated into two flavors: AM reports with finishes in the late morning to early/mid afternoon and then lines with PM reports with finishes in the early to late evening.
I like to bid the AM lines so that I have time to do things after getting to the hotel. I hate getting to the hotel late at night. Plus, flying in the morning gets you away from some of the afternoon storms and the operational snowball effects that that causes.
