Yeah thats just it, it makes me feel like more of an airline pilot. For some reason doing 3 round trips a day to PIT or IAD and then driving home everynight just didnt seem like the life of an airline pilot, Im sorry if that offends you.

Absolutely not, to each his own. Just wondered why overnights and jets seemed to be all you care about.

Cost of living is average. 3-400/month for appt with roomate. I know there are 4 other FOs in TYR behind me who coincidently came on in back to back new hire classes. I'm not sure is TYR is still open.

Jets and overnights are not all I care about, however flying for a company that treats me with more respect than Colgan ranks high on my list.
