Guess AVL guys don't forum. I'm not based there but I can give you some info.
10 captains: 5 lines, 2 composite, 3 reserve. 9 FO's: 4 lines, 1 composite, 4 reserve. 2 MD80's I think (transition to Airbus in November this year). I think it's moderately senior.
Can't comment on QOL. I assume it's good. You may fly a lot on reserve since AVL is close enough to cover FL bases. That's all I got.

AVL reserves actually don't typically work too much. Sometimes you cover an open trip or a sick call, but usually both planes are out, so getting called for a rescue is extremely rare.

You’d think that but I was there for a bit and I did a few trips outta lax IWA but was always brought back to base the same day. It’s strange why we have 11 CAs for only 1 plane though.

Almost every destination out of OAK could also be covered from another base, except MEM. Obviously they have a reason for keeping it open with the massive overhead it must be creating for a single airframe, but it's hard to figure out.

I know it is currently a moot point due to lack of hiring but how jr were SFB and PIE going when there was movement, and any idea how jr they will go once hiring resumes? I know this is a moving target but any insights would help.
one more thing, about how many crews are in each base?
Thanks in advance!
