Default DEN Growth

Congrats DEN. Looking at DVR, in all but one metric you’re the largest OO pilot base. Sorry Orchard Park.

How big will you get?

If I was a young, un-wed FO I’d be packing for my stuff and buying a Denver Bronco jersey (much like a certain Green Bay quarterback).

Back when I went to CPZ , the west hard to get for OO, now DEN is JR. Hopefully it stays that way and I can hold it out of training (august class) since I live here in CO.

I’ve noticed some really good FO’s I’ve flown with out of MSP make the switch to DEN for July already.

Yeah I think you’re going to be able to grab it. Right now it shows 90% of the ERJ pilots as line holders next month. They obviously need more than 10% reserves.

I would chase the flying myself, but I got a new house that needs some work, so this sitting as home on LCR is fine for me.

United and Southwest expansion are going to turn Denver into the busiest airport it the US. SkyWest is along for the ride at this point. With all the gate/terminal construction, this could be an exciting few years to watch...unless you are at Denver Tracon. Time to build the third E/W runway?

Speaking of DEN, Bishop and Lewiston are now going to be served by UAX out of DEN. 700s to BIH and the 200 to LWS on the 200

Man, I hope DEN stays junior for a while and things keep moving there. Going to class next month and would love to live there afterwards.

Funny how times change. It took me over 7 years to hold DEN after getting hired, and after 6 months there I transferred to MSP for the seniority and spent the rest of my time in Minneapolis.

If you’re single, don’t mind some of us living vicariously thru you…. And I’m married to a wonderful person.

You’ll be fine. And when you upgrade you’ll likely also be fine. Go buy/rent a flat. Go to IKEA. Fly like a beast. Or. Rock climb in Rocky Mt Nat Park all summer. Mt bike everywhere. Then endless winter on the Epic Pass. Join the OO ski group.
