Default S5 LGA & ORD bases

I know over at Shuttle America the junior base is currently LGA. What is the current approx time to hold a line there and how long could one realistically expect to wait to hold ORD. Just trying to see if my expectations are accurate regarding basing etc.

Yes I do, it's a very long and complex situation which I'd rather not discuss on public forums.

Appreciate it, thanks. It's a huge decision, and one that I'm not having a great time making.

Dudes fresh out of the school house had lines in IND this month.

Don't bet the job on getting ORD. Unless you have a very good reason to want ORD, I wouldn't worry about it. IND and CMH you'll get a line much sooner than ORD. I'm pretty sure 2007 hires are still on reserve there, where as 2012 hires hold lines in IND.

Anyone have any idea about Chautauqua? What are my chances of getting LGA out of training, and how long could I expect to be on reserve there?

I am S5 ORD based...I went online back last June...let me be the first to tell you it's all about timing and upgrades. Until they pull people from ORD there will not be much additions here. BUT I do imagine they might add around 5 people because on the last bid coversheet there were only 79 people on the list...last summer we were around 85. So we shall see. It's all about timing.
