4-day trips (3 nights away from domicile) are the vast majority of the flying. Between the 4-days are 2, 3, sometimes 4 days off. You will generally fly 5-ish trips a month, 50% or better seniority is flying 4 x 4-days per month in STL. Top 50% STL has 15 or 16 days/mo off!! You won't get many weekend days until you've been around awhile. Out of your 5 monthly trips, anywhere from zero to 5 of the 10 start/finishes will be commutable. Probably gonna need a crash pad - esp for reserve. But hey, avoid reserve completely and "join now with our delayed entry program" - last time I heard that, I ended up in boot camp.

I was getting pretty comfy with pushing the download button once a month to update my log book.

Lets say that "Joe", a STL domiciled gent, really, really wants STL as a base as new hire FO. What are the current chances that Joe would be awarded STL as a base? And that he could keep it? Joe is thinking that "if I have to commute anyway, maybe another Regional's CJO should be reconsidered"

STL 3/9/15 10/6/15
ORD 3/9/15 9/1/15
IAD 1/14/15 9/1/15
DEN 10/7/13 4/1/15
RDU 1/5/15 11/16/15
STL shouldn't take too long to hold.
If someone really wants STL as a base I would say we are the best choice of regionals.
