New Hire - E175 vs CRJ
I have read and posted on this subject before...but as dynamic as things seem to be, thought I would try to nail down the current state of the union. I have a Jun class date on the E175...I have been hearing from some folks to plan on under 10 hours a month while on E-reserve, others have said they got much more. I can swap over to the CRJ if I give some heads up, but I'm leaning towards sticking with the E175. I have seen some news on new basing and new jets recently, so just wondering what new hires are actually logging (on both jets) for the first 3 months/6 months?
Thanks for info...I am a retiring USAF non-current pilot with 2,500TT, WWYD?

By the time you hit line you will fly more then that.. they “pre-trained” for the 45 aircaft we take between now and fall.. very agressive schedule.. if you plan on upgrading as fast as you can. You may want to do the CRJ unless you want LGA base.

Don’t come here if you want Houston.. (at the moment) those crews are on pins and needles.. but the last guy to get warded IAH was hired 10/17. So probably just finished IOE.. the bid that just closed 2 FO’s we’re awarded IAH.. Houston is very rumor heavy at Mesa. Republic just opened a base. XJT. Who knows...We really shouldn’t have a base there. So that may be a sign that we may grow there if the ball drops on one of the other regionals there...
