My understanding is TUS is fairly small and senior

I wouldn't call it luck. It has hovered around 6 to 8 months for at least the last 2 years.

MSP, DTW, ORD on the CRJ. PDX or ORD on the ERJ. Just about any base is attainable within a few months of training.

Big Thanks, looking for the next gig, trying to figure out the commute.

Where would I find which airplanes are based where?

Example, I'd like to end up in DEN or COS, but would not know which airframe to ask for, did not know where CRJ's are based or where EJets are based.

ERJ bases are ORD, DEN, PDX, SEA, SFO and LAX.

DEN is CRJ/ ERJ. COS is CRJ.

They cover the airframes at each base when you interview.
