Default Pinnacle Bases

Any opinions about what base would be the best for holding a line, best area to live, etc. at Pinnacle? Just got on with them and any thoughts or experience would be helpful.

As an FO, you can hold any base, I would say best bet for getting a line is DTW or MEM, MSP has shrunk in total flight hours. I am not for sure though, maybe some FOs can say for sure. Congrats, its not the best place, but not the worst, good luck, have fun.

Easy, bid MSP/DTW in the summer and MEM in the winter. Do 6 month leases and have the best of both worlds.

I would think the MSP flying would increase slightly in the coming months with the Avro's leaving Mesaba at 3 per month. For June all of the Avro's were pulled out of MEM and put on routes out of MSP and DTW. As they continue to be phased out, I would expect the 50 and 44 seat RJ feed from Pinnacle to increase again out of MSP.

...but what do I know...I am not management!
