Jr line holders DOH for February
D8 Captains are really low on reserves
No reserves for ERJ
D8 FO has a lot of reserve coverage and seems to be stagnate.
I'm a 1/2017 hire and am IAD ERJ FO along with 5 others from my class.

The INDOC hotel is usually a Wyndham or a Springhill Suites, single occupancy. As far as the EFB's...during my INDOC class in January we were told by the most reliable source possible that EFBs are basically on the back burner for now until they get the jets going more. With that being said, they are working on the behind the scenes technology of the EFBs, so there is work being done to prepare. While the paper manuals are a pain, they are smart for not rushing it and having problems. There's a rumor floating around that Jeppesen is going to quit printing paper charts by end of year...I'd like to see concrete evidence of that being true.

If you are still in class, you are probably not a line holder...

I think he's saying the Jr Line holders are that date.

Took a look at the seniority list and as of Feb 1st 2017, the least senior pilot is a D8 Captain!

Anyone know if PBS access gets activated once you pass sims/IOE or should you have access to it day 1?

You get access pretty quickly, maybe week 2. You can't bid until IOE but you can see your monthly schedule which is helpful.

Jepp, put out something close to two years ago that they are going to price hike the paper incrementally to get everyone over to the EFB. Now I don't know if that happened, but that was part of their plan to get everyone on board.

Have a friend starting next week. 7000tt lots of 121, how long before he upgrades on the jet? Thinking of applying, just can't afford to be on FO pay for long, not that I'm entitled to an upgrade but I have a few kids to take care of until I'm fortunate enough to get a call from UAL. Thank you

Instant upgrade on the dash if you want it. Most junior jet captain was hired 10/3/16.
