Is LGA historically a busy base? I.e. If you're on reserve at LGA and you want to fly, are you likely to pick up trips rather than sitting around on reserve?

Cheers, Jimmy

9.5 years ago. I flew 600+ hours my first year. But the base was bigger then and reserve lasted 5-6 months

You probably will work a lot on reserve. That doesn't necessarily mean you'll fly a lot, but they always seem to come up with something. Ready reserve. A deadhead to an overnight and one leg back. Always something.

You never know. LGA is "new", so they might not beat the reserves up too much until they can figure out how much flying to leave uncovered and make them work just the fight amount.

For months on end all it seemed like I was doing was a flight out and a DH back or vice versa. Now it seems all I'm doing are ready reserve, mixed with the occasional 4 day and a random day turn. Where it will be in a few months is anyone's guess. I still can't believe the company is building in a two day lost weekend ins GSO. Fly in Friday night and sit all day Saturday and Sunday fly out Monday morning.

On reserve you can get anywhere from 350-600 hours in a year depending on how you choose to work.

I saw on the company FB page that three went to LGA in the last class. Did they go and offer them them choice to choose LGA after they were assigned ORD? Or was there a new class this week?
