That's my rationale to be careful with what I fly on the side.

FAA Johnstone interpretation says that any flying done under part 91K or by a 119 certificate holder (aka 121, 135, 125) count against 117 limitations.

It does say that regardless of the activity, you must be fit for duty, obviously.

Oh neat. So CFI work on the side does not count according to precedence is what I gather from that?

I wonder how that would go since we have no American 175's

The whole point is to try to get 175s for American :)

One can hope! I would like the 200's to get rid of that ugly paint job though...lol. I like the new AA paint.

There is a CFI hired on where I work that is a 1st year FO at Skywest. Although I never have seen him work.

Hi Everyone! I'm interviewing with Skywest in a couple of weeks and would love to get the ERJ. I live in south east Wisconsin so I'd like a Chicago base. Is the ERJ in Chicago attainable? Thanks, love this website.

You'll get ORD while you're still in training​.
