Bases are awarded during training then every 6 months (June/December for FOs). BIL has 14 lines and a fair amount of turnover. There are openings there regularly, so if you don’t get it initially you have a good chance of getting it 6 months in.

Thanks for the response

GDV was just an idea to save on driving, while still having the option to continue westbound on 94 if need be.

We are. Glendive is served by us and we have no dedicated cockpit jumpseat is I believe the point...

Training is typically a Monday - Friday schedule. Occasionally there will be a few instructors who will have weekend slots open for those who would like to get ahead in training.

I’m a BIL FO. The GDV flights are often pretty light. I would say it would be a fairly easy commute. They have 2 flights a day from BIL. As others have said it’s usually easy to get BIL right out of initial. Currently we are full on FOs but we have a few PICs that should upgrade in a few months.Feel free to PM me if you have any questions!
