Let's get it right this time.

When Republic first year pilots are making more than my pay rate they need to seriously sit back and realize something is messed up.

If you fly over the credit you get paid actual block.

And if they fly under credit they still get the scheduled credit for that leg

That’s it. I’m almost positive the more I read about the 121 world, the dumber about it I get.

It’s comical at this point.

If "they" is 9e, then that is also consistent with OO.

IAH

Cannot find any threads on various bases and seniority. How junior is IAH? Website says FO is 08-21-2017. Is this accurate? Also, what basis are new hires getting? Interested in SkyWest, but only if I can get IAH within 6 months.

As it turned out, that regional did lose the Mexico stuff, but instead of SKW getting it, Republic got it. Now what happens with our IAH base is anyone’s guess, but it’s not likely to be a fast growth opportunity.
