Probably, but I just need some more TPIC to be competitive where I want to go. Plus, I'm within driving distance from CMH. I just wasn't sure if you all had long-call reserve or not; however, I'm sure if it's like when I was with the regionals, LCR went fairly senior. But yes, I would think a DEC would forever be on reserve until he/she gets to their destination airline.

Long call at Republic is basically worthless.
As a DEC every pilot that upgrades will leapfrog you. You will be junior forever.

guys always make this argument against DEC’s. But the whole reason an airline needs DEC’s is because guys aren’t upgrading. I doubt the leapfrog will be an issue before he gets the minimal time he needs and moved on.

Exactly. It's not a long-term decision, but any pilot finding themselves wanting to get back into 121 and get some TPIC time will think once or twice about the DEC option. My only fear is that the economy will slow and one could become "stuck".

Contractual 2500hrs gone, the leap frog could happen. Just a thought
