I think the comment was in regard to other regional pilots jumping ship to get on at eagle to guarantee their spot with a major. Its still all really fuzzy right now and I agree its probably to get more 70 seats and future 90 seaters... Oh well, just ride the waves right??

I'm scheduled for the Aug 1st class. Do any of you guys know when they fly you out to Dallas and when do you receive all the info about class? Thanks.

If my next Monday you don't hear from them call them. But you should hear something by early next week! They will fly in more than likely Sunday morning.

Days off on reserve
 
Quick question,

If I want to switch days off while reserve what's the RF command?

When does scheduling allow you to do this?

Miami ATR FO
 
Maybe I'm looking at this wrong but it looks like at least 5 FO's in Miami who bid and received lines for August will be going to training on the 1st.

What is the open time gonna look like next month?

Do you think Eagle is still a viable place to go to after October? They are my first choice, but should I be looking elsewhere?

I think so. The flow thru for anyone hired in 2011 will take about 10-15 years anyway so that is not a major factor IMO. The benefit is that you will have all the senior pilots moving up which will help you move up the seniority list fairly rapidly.

Way too much is up in the air to give an intelligent response. Just try to pick a place where you'll get a descent QOL.

As far as flowing to American I would discourage people from making that their only avenue to American or any major. All too often it doesn't pan out for the junior guys.

Anybody in the class that just started for Eagle? I was wondering what the average age was for that class and how quickly the DFW spots were chosen. Also, if a new hire can't get DFW right away, what's a best guess on how long it would take to get it...lets say if you were in the EMJ? Thanks y'all.

Not in that class but several are getting base transfers before they leave training. Ord and dfw are both really short so they aren't hard to get.
