ya take DFW for cost of living. So maybe go with ATR, that way more jets for me =) that way I can stay in NY.
I'm also starting GS on the 14th. 26 years old. What's the best base as far as cost of living goes? You guys have posted that maybe between 30 - 40 new hires will start on the 14th- thats awesome. I'm also open ears to equipment rumors and bases. Any rumors you guys know of?

DFW has ERJ and ATR pilot bases, so if you cant get a DFW base on the initial class Day 1 just try to get either the ATR or ERJ somewhere else. You can put in a base transfer and shouldnt have to spend too much time waiting.
Rumors are the lifeblood of the pilot group, we always have some good ones

Haha, no! I'm born and raised here, long before the Free State movement was a concept. Its a bit radical and heavy on the civil disobedience to really get anywhere in NH. The would have had a lot more luck in Vermont!

Im currently JFK based, but will be MIA soon! I commute out of BOS, and there are lots of options BOS-JFK and BOS-LGA so it hasnt been too bad of a commute (but still, any commute blows and I highly recommend moving to a base if you can manage it). It is a 1hr drive to BOS from where I am in NH, and then the plane ride to NYC. With weather and delays it can be a loong day getting to/from work.
Haha ya Im just another guy flyin the line here and trying to help answer questions from the people thinking about Eagle. Im tryin to figure out what the Feb14 class will be. Im betting on lots of ORD FO CRJ and DFW FO ERJ with a few LGA FO CRJ. Smaller number of DFW/MIA FO ATR as well. I'll let you know if I find out anything more solid.
