I'd rather have a 2 leg 4 hour local on the 175 than a 4-6 leg 4/5 hr local on the 200.

That place is bad.
Ever called and asked for room service??

You actually have to call? Thought you could just change the color of the light in the window...
Quote: Great! Thanks for the info. How easy would it be for a junior E175 ORD FO to hold day trips and two days?
Not ever going to happen
Quote: Depends on seniority, 73% of trips are 4 days And they pay the best. 16% are 3 days 7% two days and the rest locals, these py the least.

Does anyone know what this would look like for the trips out of COS?

Since COS is a MX base mostvif the trips start early and end really late at night. The locals tend to not donthis as much, but are usually pretty senior.
Recency
Not to ask an already repeated question most likely, but I've had prior 121 experience and had to leave the business about 3 years ago due to family issues, and now I'm curious as to the "recency of experience" requirement. It won't be difficult to get recent again, but wondering what would they would want to see to consider an applicant - assuming all other requirements are met (munis ATP written which I plan on doing).

Thanks!

I'm not sure if they want a certain number of hours, but I would definitely be 90 day current in any aircraft and instrument current as well. Of course having a current medical goes without saying. Back in 2010, while I was on furlough, I applied at Eagle/Envoy. I let my medical and currency go for a few months. As soon as I rented some FTD time and got a new medical, and updated my app, I got a call within a few days. They understood that I was on furlough and couldn't find a flying job for recency.

Okay, I thought as much. The thought came (unlikely scenario) that if there were two applicants, one having only just met the minimum requirements for currency and the other having met it and flying x hours in addition - if the second would be more favorable over the first.

They need bodies. If you're current and personable, you'll get the job.
