Correct? Starting Monday. Thanks again!

Also, I should mention that holding a line is more important to me than having MSP right off the bat.
I would bid MSP 900 second if I were you. The difference in reserve times between DTW and MSP should be minimal, and I don't know if playing musical bases and commutes is worth a couple months difference. But that's just me.

Yup. You can always change it on the next bid if Msp is more important compared to a line. You can drop M9F (MSP -900 FO) into slot 2 if you decide the base it more important.

But one should also consider reserve times too. 200 reserve time will be considerably less than 900 reserve, right? Age makes all the difference in the world, as well as one's plans after (if there IS an after) Endeavor.

But as always, living in base beats other options, hands down.

If all the new 200's go to JFK and LGA I think that DTW and MSP 200 RSV time will be on pace with the 900 respectively.

Doubtful it will get that bad on the 200. I've heard numbers thrown around of about 30 crews per base on the 200 (JFK & LGA each)

I'm pretty sure we need TSO'd headsets, so no Lightspeed.

I'm also in the market for headsets. I've been eyeing the David Clark Pro-X (would appreciate an opinion on these).

Also as far as luggage, go with the LuggageWorks. You could do Stealth series, but I've talked to others saying the Aviator series is almost just as good as long as you treat it ok.

I've used the pro x headset for over a year now. No problems. I use rechargeable batteries. I bought mine on ebay new for 575. I think they run 700 or more in the stores.

Same here, been using the DC pro X since I hit the line 6 months ago. It's a great headset. got mines off amazon for $620.

Thanks! I've heard great things about the DC Pro-X.
