Most senior is definitely DEN...here's my guess at the rundown from Jr to Sr.

CMH PIT PHL IND DCA MCI DEN

Ha PIT and IND are junior? 07 IND and PIT hires still on reserve iffy at both.

Not sure about your list.... more like:

GSO is missing from the list too as the most junior base for '07 hires. IND is way off in that list too. It is one of the most junior bases at RW (YX).

Oh, and this late '07 hire can hold a line, no problem, in PIT. You must be almost an '08 hire to miss a line in PIT

Does the Republic side fly exclusively for a particular master(Legacy)? or is it a mix(UAL/US/DL)?

Thanks for the information. You're missing the main point. A law graduate after 9 months is making 68K.....the median pay, meaning the middle...is 92K for pilots. How long do you think it takes the average pilot to even make it to 92k? The average airline pilot age is 41.2 according to Air Transport Association.
Then again average starting salary in a private pratice is 108k.

So tell me how you think being a pilot is a better option

You're not even comparing 'apples to apples', so to speak. Or even 'apples to oranges' for that matter. At least those are both fruits. You, Wingtips, seem to be comparing 'apples to pipe wrenches' in this case.

You are comparing two vastly different skill sets, job functions, and educations. I don't know about your airline, but when I go to work, I don't read case studies and then write a summary about the upcoming leg. While we're talking about lawyers, did you know that in California one can become a lawyer without ever attending law school? It's true. Are you going to paint all lawyers (or at least all CA lawyers) into a lower class since some among them didn't submit to the same lofty educational standards as others?

I know plenty of pilots with law degrees, MBA's, and any other professional certification under the sun. I also know pilots who didn't complete high school. Can't necessarily tell the difference in the flight deck.


-On the other hand, I think you proved your own point rather well.

Seriously, how many have you ACTUALLY flown with? One? None? Be honest.
