Default Crashpads

Does anyone have an info on crashpads in PIT specifically? I’m going to have to commute to reserve, so I’m not looking to hold a lease.

Any leads?

Sorry pal, but you are going to have a VERY rough time trying to find a crashpad in Pitt.

Take it from a guy who has looked everywhere and come up with nothing. I just got tired of paying for my own hotel and am moving into base next week. While you look, you can stay at the Sonesta and they have a crew rate for $68 a night.

your best bet would be to find some people around the training center who also got PIT and find a place that you all can throw in on.

I appreciate the info. $68 isn’t too bad. You’re off your initial 100 hours right? What’s the flying like on reserve? Any multi day trips? Unfamiliar with what the reserve and lines are like out there

Reserve isn’t based off of your initial 100 hours, it’s however long it takes to hold a line. PIT right now is around 8 months. Reserve out of PIT as it’s an outstation is different than LGA BOS or DCA. You’re going to be doing mostly day trips/mx repos, or if you’re lucky you’ll get a 3-4 day trip once a month.

Yep. In the rare occurrence that I do get called on reserve out of PIT, it’s just a quick turn and I’m back here rather quickly. Commuting to reserve is rough at PIT which is why I opted to just pack my things up and move. You will be spending a good chunk of money on hotels every month.

When I started here my options for a base out of training was PIT, DCA, EWR, and LGA. I nearly picked PIT, but then I noticed it was a 2 leg commute with very limited crashpads. Ended up choosing EWR until I was senior enough to hold my home base of IND.
