MIA has never been a jet crew base for AE. It is (and will remain) an ATR base. The ATR flying wont be reduced with the changes ahead, just the RJ flying. AE will still operate about 8 daily flights into MIA that will be operated by ORD based crews. TSA will be flying about 8 flights/day into MIA starting June. These are routes that AE is currently flying with RJs.

Well I just applied 4-11 so I hope I can fill one of those ORD EMJ slots. I hope I hear from them next week I just applied on airlineapps does anybody fax or email resumes in I didn't due to AE wanting you to use airlineapps. I applied with 482/73 so if I due get it I will have to go do the eagle paid transition stuff wich I don't mind. I'm trying to decided if I want to try the BOS to ORD switcharo or just chance it and might end up with the CRJ. I live about an hour from ord so I'm practicaly in base any thought? Thanks everyone got my fingures crossed.

The beginning of the 3rd week I was awarded ORD EMJ. I spoke in person with the ORD crew scheduler. They are sooo short staffed there. People are able to fly as much as possible. If you want ORD EMJ, bid BOS. I was skeptical about it before training, but it worked for me and happened before I completed systems training.

Has anybody ever been burned, and then ended up getting stuck in BOS? Doesnt AE catch on to this little loophole.
Question about the CRJ: Wouldnt the routes be more favorable on it since it's mostly longer hauls? What type of line would a guy on the CRJ get?

I don't understand. If Eagle is so short staffed, and they need 123 EMJ FO in ORD, then why would you have to bid BOS and LGA and then transfer into ORD. Shouldn't they be thrilled to have someone bid ORD?
I have a friend who wants to apply to Eagle soon, so I am trying to learn as much as I can about the company. Thank you.

If I was an L1011 capt at ATA, I'd go into construction or something other than flying jobs before I'd work for 20k at a regional. Don't think you'll see a lot of those guys around.
