DEN base possibilities
 
I'm an Army pilot, but have the FW requirements to apply. I'm very interested in basing out of DEN. How likely is this as a newbie? I'll be on the older side in my mid-40s. If you don't get your first base choice, how long (on average) does it take to perhaps move over to DEN? Thanks!

I heard we had lots of no shows in our most recent CRJ class...expected 30 and got 8...any truth to this?

Wouldn’t shock me. They probably all called Endeavor.

IOE minimum hours?
 
I’m about to complete my third IOE trip which was a three day trip. Is there a minimum number or trips or hours I fly before completing IOE? One of my original three trips were cancelled, this third one was scheduled after the fact. Should I expect another trip? Or I am ready for reserve?

There are certain things you have to demonstrate/discuss on IOE. When they are completed and satisfactory the box will be checked.
Your checkairman will do your line check and sign you off when you are done.
You should ask your checkairman how you are doing and what you need to complete yet.

Three trips is pretty common. Depends on how many days, how many legs, and how you're doing.

Your CKA would have told you if you were into remedial IOE, or lagging significantly.
