True. Sorry I was being VERY general about regionals. None are spectacular, but some are better than others.

Yes, at least the Paris Air Show. Winning best regional is like getting the best fat chick at a bar. Congrats! But you'll still hate your life in the morning.

Hey at this point I'd be happy to get a job at a regional, and if it ends up being Eagle I'd be thrilled.

Thanks so much!

it varies from each base! *i think* the new hires that finished IOE two months ago are not holding a line in jfk, immediately if you are on the crj in LGA. again, the line values differ each month. You can plan on 75min credit pay on reserve, 72min if you're a line holder. Once you are able to hold a line, you could pick up extra hours to supplement your line guarantee.

enjoy

not sure about dfw, but if you have access to jetnet, you could check how far you are down the list and compare to how many emj lines they have.

You can make 150 to 200K at a legacy with 18 days off a month too.

It changes so fast, by the time you leave training the most junior base will be different from right now.
