I do wonder what'll happen when all of the CRJ 200s finally are pooped out. These planes do fly every day, and ain't gettin any younger. What are regionals like Skywest just going to fly 70 plus seaters everywhere, and say bye bye to the small communities that they were made on?

Has anybody recently gone through training on here? I've got a question about bidding for the Simulator days. They have Sims in SLC, ATL, and STL. Are the junior guys ending up waiting for the sims in ATL and STL or are they the ones staying in SLC? Seems to be about a 2 week difference on the CRJ.

Perception isn't necessarily reality. I'm on reserve, live in base & end up spending a lot if quality time with the family. Helping the little ones with homework, getting things done on the honey-do list and just relaxing. If I get the call then I get dressed & go to work. If this is hell, I'd sure love to see what heaven looks like. Some people...
What are the reserve times looking like these days? How long until you hold a line. I know it depends on the base. What about Denver and ORD?
Also, how often do you get called to fly on reserve? My goal is to fly as much as possible while here so I'm wondering how much flight time I can get.
Thanks!

Careful what you say though, if you average more than 83 hours per month you will time out (rolling 1000/yr). But you will be able to get all the flying to your hearts content!
