What's going on with our LA peeps? I head that things are going to blow up out there start of next year for those guys. That's why they're not moving anyone out. When do the Eagle airplanes leave?
I don't know what's going on in LA, but PSP has added 9 FO spots, and approximately 9 CA spots in the past 2 months. Something's gong on and no one is talking.

Thanks for the info, I'm not necessarily worried about where I sleep for half the month and I know what I'm walking into. I know I can expect 2-4+ day trips and be away from home. The wife and I knew that well before applying and after getting hired. I just have zero clue on how the bidding works yet, what the trips are like out of MSP, or even what trips would be possible to bid for. I know there are a good amount of skywest flights in/out of FAR just curious as to the likely hood of maybe seeing the wife an extra night/afternoon or two randomly.
You can bid specifically for FAR overnights in PBS parameters.

Looks like it won't be hard to get FO SFO 175. Maybe one or two months in ORD then able to hold SFO. How are the pairings in SFO on the 175's

Please excuse the redundant question, but this is a forum with opinions and conjecture. Since posting this apparent aggravation I've received an email from the company that helped out tremendously regarding my previous question. I appreciate the respectful responses and the others do not change my opinion of the pilot group at Skywest.
