And paying all those Cali taxes while getting shot at--the humanity. Cali people really are brainwashed that the Sun doesn't shine anywhere else.

So just a quick clarification. At Skywest you get typed on the CR2/7 and split between those mostly? I really am looking for Cr7/9 time for the weight requirement for foreign airlines. So skywest is not the best for this or is it possible to get a base where you are basically committed to the cr7 or 9 most of the time?

how long would that take to get off of reserve to get that?

Thanks.

IAH is an all 700 base and it's pretty junior. Also Skywest is hiring into the E175 if weight is the only thing important to you. Time to hold a line varies from base to base anywhere from 2 months to 6 years. We have a lot of bases.

Although IAH has a majority of its flying in the CR7, we also fly the CR9 on the delta side. As for reserve it would be longer than ord and Msp. But you never know, things could change fast with attrition. Still a big variety of flying and pretty good trips out of IAH. Just did a 29 credit 4 day last week (orig was 27:51 credit)
