Looking at applying to a number of regionals. Getting based at IAD (or at least DCA) would be my number one priority for QOL reasons. Any insights into liklihood of that at TSA. Have heard all new pilots are being based at STL but then can likely move to the other domiciles within a couple of months (except DEN). Is that accurate? Are any new hires getting IAD?

And they are getting more flying. If they improve their contract, we'll again be the least desirable TSH property. We are only 3-4 airplanes of the 14 remaining from having no reserves.

Got a flyer in the mail today from Trans States. It said that if I brought it with me to an interview there I would get a $50 Amazon gift card.

Just thought it was funny/sad.

That's a real big if. They have used their ridiculously low pilot costs to get flying. Depending upon how much they can pass any pay raises to mainline under terms of the contract, they can't afford to give much. Plus the management gang at Gojet isn't going anywhere soon, and they make the place as oppressive as it ever was. If Gojet isn't the cheapest game in town, they aren't getting the flying and Mother D needs them cheap to force rate resets on everyone else. If they can't use Gojet for rate resets, then there is no need for them at Delta.

Last I heard UA had reaffirmed all their 700 flying but 15 Gojet airplanes. UA has to reduce their 700 flying for scope, and Gojet will probably lose airplanes for this.

Logging sim time

How did you log your sim time, for your personal log book??

Mcc logbook pulls the sim time from crewtrac. It has my new hire, aqp, and captain in there.

Isn't TSA getting this Lufthansa software also as well as Compass. I have a buddy at Compass and he said they make the change at the beginning of January and TSA switches at the beginning of February. Has this been told the the pilots at either property?
