Im just thinking, where ever you go it's going to suck. But guess what, you fly airplanes for a living so suck it up and enjoy the sunset. I feel like pilots lose their love for flying because they battle with dealing with the political crap. You get paid. To do what you love. So who cares.

For those in the past, do you have to check your bag yourself when traveling to training or does the airline pick that up? I'm traveling on United tomorrow and my email asking this has not been returned and the travel department is closed today at YX...

It's free to check your bag.

You are "positive space", no charge. But, word to the wise, pack such that you don't have to. Carry on, don't check. You'll thank me one day.

I just went through the in house CTP course, it was a very easy process, and all the instructors were great. They put us in the Wingate during the ground portion in Indy, then they put us in the Marriott Res Inn in CVG for sims, which was extremely nice. They did split us between the 145/170 sims, but we each got 16 hours across 4 days in the full motion sims, and I learned a lot in the 170 sim. However, they were talking about bringing it down to 12 hours to free up sim time, and moving everyone to the 170 because they got a buyer for all the 145 time they had laying around.

New Hire Questions
Hello all, I just accepted my offer with RAH, I have have been flying "corporate" for the past year flying primarily the Baron G58 and some King Air work. I am making the switch for better QOL and closer base locations to my family. Wondering if anyone has a copy of the contract they can PM me, as well as general pointers for training and the good VS. not so good bases (mainly looking for lower reserve times). Finally, any one here going to be in the February 14th FO class?

After two years of practically living out of a hotel full time from my part 91 job, I may bring the can of bed bug spray with me for the first time ever...
Being Diamond at Hilton, Spire at IHG, low tier at Marriott and best western... I'm not going to lie but I cringed a little when I saw Super 8 in that email.

Hotel proprietor just bought the Stacks Diner next door. Look for free dinner coupons starting in late February or March instead of the meals in the hotel.

RAH needs more personalities like this. My experience was 90% of the pilot group were spineless victims who were just "doing what they love."
