What equipment are new hires getting hired into? And where are the junior bases?

They're hiring into both the Brasilia and CRJ. On the brasilia just about everything is junior. FAT and PSP are always the most junior. The only bases it's currently not possible to hold almost immediately are SLC and SBP but there's even been some movement in SBP recently, and SLC on the bro is getting some new flying out of DEN.

Junior bases on the CRJ are ORD, MSP and COS. Those have been the junior bases since I've been here. It doesn't fluctuate much. The most junior lineholder in those bases is around a year and a half.

If you don't mind, out of curiosity, which bases are Bro bases, which bases are CRJ bases, and which are both?

I knew I was missing one or two but couldn't think of them. I lived in PHX too. Time for another coffee.
