Does anybody have an gouge on when they think the next new hire CRJ class will be. I was hired last month have asked to be put in the pool for a CRJ class. I currently live near MSP and Married with kids as well as a guard pilot, just couldnt swing flying the Bro on the west coast for a year. Just looking for some opinions on the training pipeline, and not on my decision to pass up Bro classes.
SkyWest is cagey about training plans, and has been known to release seat locks when necessary. I was the beneficiary of that at one time myself. They still have to address how we're going to staff the 175, since everyone that wanted ORD pretty much got it, FO-wise, and we have 34 more aircraft coming. Not saying it is going to happen, but what are you going to do if we start hiring into the 175 instead, which will not have an MSP base?

A question for those on the Bro side. For someone starting class on Monday and needing to prepare options for domiciles.
What is gonna be the best option? I will probably have to commute from El Paso to wherever I get, but I might be moving to the Ontario Ca area within a year.
I have family to stay with equal distance from LAX or PSP. I also have family near PDX. Being that I will be commuting for a time anyhow, what domicile is gonna be the best option to get a line and make commuting tolerable?
I understand things are fluid, just trying to get an idea on best options before I get to class on Monday.

LAX and PSP tend to be equal seniority and do mostly the same flying. It's much easier to park and access the terminal at PSP, and inland traffic between ONT and PSP is better and more predictable than heading west.
If commuting from El Paso, then LAX would be the one-leg commute. for PSP you'd have to go through PHX or LAS.

Take as much military leave as possible the first year.
