Wow, with your screen name taken into account and that rant / question, I'll just assume you're a disgruntled regional lifer that this industry hasn't been that kind to. That's really too bad. Make some lemons from that lemonade and diversify your interests. Eggs left in the aviation basket will get crushed eventually.

PS: I goofed. 15 days off was my low credit range month. The higher ones left me at 12-13 days off. I live near base so that's fine with me. It's all how you ride in this rodeo, but an old-timer Avro driver (former) should know that..

There is a group of us that have constantly seemed to be stuck at the bad end of things for the past 10 + years, costing us dearly compared to the average. Unfortunately I am an example of the results of the worst decade in the history of this career. And things are not exactly looking up because of this merger (I.E. Pinnacle Corp is not exactly realizing any benefits and actually losses thanks to this poorly planned merger)

Can anyone tell me how many FO's are based in BOS on the Saab for Colgan? Also, can you tell me what the schedules look like (i.e. # of reserves lines, average days off, etc.) Thank you very much for the info in advance.
