ORD. Then they will OBR them out to other bases to provide enough reserve coverage to cover operations but not enough that pilots can drop\post trips in Sched+. Then CS can brag about how many manual transactions they did for the day.

Looks like the May 25th class will have 15 new hires for the 175. No word on CRJ classes or numbers. Another big middle finger to those wanting to transition to the 175 and they are now being promised an August class. And in August they will be told something else.

How do you know there are 15 new hires in the May 25 class?

Someone posted on the SAPA forums. 24 for the class size with at least 9 CA. Who knows they could change it to more CA if we keep losing them at the rate we had last month.

So no, your little gif does nothing.

Let's resort to ad hominem because using facts clearly is beyond your scope of debating abilities. You're a true Skywest teetsucker
Please don't feed the troll this guy has become.

Anyone know the average flight hours a line holder gets on the 175 and what base? I heard they're overstaffed on the EJET.. However, I feel like since they opened the LAX base and getting more ejets rsv time will go down and spike flying... Got a class on the 175 so I'm trying to get an idea. Thanks

Nah. They just keep ord overstaffed and dh reserves all over the place. Why allow lineholders in lax to drop when you can get them to call in sick, burn user time and still cover it free with ord reserves?

My 6 month average is 52 hours and I bid 14% in ORD... Lots of displacement the last few months for those wondering what to expect.

These airline options are tough.. Currently have a class at Skywest-175 - Republic- 175 and Endeavor.. Just don't know which to choose to be honest. I'd prefer the 175 and get a good amount of flying and not sit reserve for too long.
