Looks like both PIT and CMH will be part of the March bid packet?

Anyone have any thoughts, think they go senior? junior?

Neither - but those that want to will be able to get out of Johnstown! Maybe!
CMH will be interesting 'cause im not sure how many pilots commute from out that way. Ya'll have fun!

Thats one thing I hated about outstation basing was your company seniority meant nothing, you could be very senior in the company and be the last guy in your base, meanwhile someother bases you could be a week out of training and have one of the better lines

Re-read what you just wrote...THAT doesn't make any sense.

If you're senior, you can at least GET that desirable base. Using your example, at 'other bases' you could be junior but you can't be junior and have good seniority with your pick of the bases.

Sorta like getting off reserve in EWR quicker than CLE (not sure if it's true, just using it as an example). One could be more senior in CLE and still be on reserve than in EWR and have a line.

Clear as mud?

Its really simple, let me make it easier for you. I was on reserve in ALB for 6 months, yet many many others who lets say have been with the company for a month had great lines, weeknds off etc. Becuase there are so many "bases" seniority isnt on your side as much, or should I say at least for me it wasnt, but to others it benefited them I guess You get my drift?
