Announcement expected next week. Most people are saying it would go senior.doesn't mean you can't get it as a new hire but you'll be on reserve longer.

I doubt it will be CLT. CAE seems a lot more likely.

It is senior at the moment, but if things go the way that they appear to be headed that will quickly change. With overnight aircraft returning to LGA the commutable schedules will quickly dry up, which will lead to a mass exodus of the senior folks.

Sounds like no CLT, CAE, BOS, or any other dream base people were wishing for.

DCA, LGA, ORF, PHL

That's it.

We've noticed many of you guys are single-engine taxiing now. What brought on that change? Last time fuel was high you still would taxi on both engines.
