Same situation with LAX? DEN?

Most commutable trips on the 175 are going to be the bigger bases: DEN, ORD, SLC.

However, it also depends on what you consider commutable. For me it’s a report after 9am and release before 7pm. Others, it’s a much more narrow window…

I thought SLC was a CRJ only base? Did that change?

As far as I know, it's always been marked on their domicile map as a dual base.

It's been a 175 domicile for around 2 1/2 years. And there is a lot more 175 flying than CRJ.

It's been a few weeks, anyone know how far out folks are getting class dates now and how is the training pipeline going? Has it been pretty smooth so far with the current classes?

If I want to be SLC based is it better to fly the 175 or go to the CRJ? My main priority is living in base (SLC) and second would be career progression (upgrade)

About two weeks prior. I’m a cadet though.
