Look at the bases Republic has and check flights to your home airport. LGA was the hardest one for me with early morning showtime and mid-afternoon return. Usually necessitated a night, or 2, per trip in NY. Not sure about the other bases.

It depends. Where do you live? I assume you only want to one leg it.check out passrider http://www.passrider.com/reservations/advanced-search/ go to google flights and type the bases and your nearest Airport.
Boston has 25 flights to LGA a day.

How many legs a day are you typically flying?

2-4 typically. Just depends on the trip.

Trips are built for 1-5 days, but they can keep you out 6 days. Some bases have a lot of 1 and 2 day trips, so you could end up with a 4 day backed up with a 1 day. Maybe 2 four days. On reserve you will have 6 day stretches.

All depends on what airport you are flying out of. You can go to passrider dot com and see what the daily flights are out of your airport to a specific location. You obviously want a 1 leg commute with a lot of flights.

Hubs are more commutable than outstations. Hubs where we fly for more than one code share (e.g., but not limited to DCA, LGA, ORD) are more commuter friendly than others (think more schedule options). YMMV...

Hats required?
 
Hi guys. I just got done with training and have OE coming up. Question is are hats required? They told us in indoc its required except during Daylight savings period. Is this true? I couldn't find anything in company manuals saying hats were required uniform. Honestly I think some pilots look great in hats, for me however I look like a complete tool. I just didnt want to show up day one without a hat and get into trouble .
