That surprised me a bit- thought it was more junior. I’m also hoping for IAH. Family roots will keep me in Texas.

Senior and small. Only 40 FOs.

That said, senior is relative when we’re losing 200+ people a month. You should be able to hold IAH in less than a year. Maybe 6 months.

Right, I’m not expecting to get it right out of training and my interviewer mentioned a few months at least. I guess I’ll have to take into consideration the possible base I might get assigned and how that commute would compare to IAH-PHL at Piedmont and each company’s QOL as a commuter.

I guess this narrows down my choices to SkyWest or Piedmont. My concern with the WO is the 50 seater and the commute to PHL which I’ll likely get assigned. If there’s any other information I should provide to help just ask. I’m obviously new to the 121 side and appreciate all of the assistance I can get.
I thought CommutAir was advertising quick class dates/ training timeframe and they have an IAH base.

if course they will send it to the pilot group. They are busy polishing power points right now for the sell job.

Lol yup…..

To be fair at least they sent it back the first time rather than waste everyone’s time with an overwhelming no vote.

True. Just wish we knew how disappointed we can expect to be
