Looking at moving over to PDT from XJT. I live near DTW and would like to get the PHL base out of training. What are the odds of that?

Also, how long is reserve time realistically? The recruiters told me there are people leaving training and going straight to a line. Is there truth in that, or is that just recruiter rhetoric?

If you get the jet PHL is the only base we have. Dash wise both MDT and PHL are easy commutes as I have done it. PHL for the dash is gonna start going junior as more of us move to the jet. In terms of lines it depends on your domicile. ROA guys have lines and most MDT guys can get a line short after training. PM me if ya have questions I can help anyway I can.

I heard they were overstaffing the jet so reserve in PHL. They overstaff it because they are getting more. Someone else can answer how long, not sure.

The PSA boards have blown up today about the their president all but making it official that they're getting a DCA base. Recruiters basically said the same about PDT yesterday while noting "nothing is official yet." What's the general consensus here? PSA or PDT to DCA? DCA is a big reason I'm considering PDT.

Just my opinion, but it looks like ENY at LGA, PDT at PHL, and PSA at DCA. Just makes sense since that covers the AWAC bases.
