It looks like line holders in Dulles are April 2011 hires.

best advice I can give you is KNOW THE CONTRACT, because C/S does not, and they will take advantage of it.

Actually they do, they're just hoping you don't

Either way you are getting bent over. Reserve on the Erj side is the best in the regionals but that just means its a lower level of suck. Reserve rules will be a big part of the new contract.

Plain and simple: LXJT spreads good things around to the pilot group in a more even manner. LASA gives just about EVERYTHING to the most senior guy. Even if he doesn't want it. Makes being at the absolute bottom a little less appealing to say the least.

I'm willing to bet that ATL LASA might have the longest FO reserve out of most regionals. But that is completely uneducated and based off of a hunch. Someone else will most likely chime in.

Most enlightened Asa pilot maybe ever. If there are more like you I say it's time to recall all the super senior guys in your MEC because they are only out to protect themselves.
