Based on the following base options, which would I most likely be able to hold immediately and what are the approx. current reserve times. (CMH, MCI, PIT, PHL, or IND).

Thanks in advance for your help...

How is SDF looking? I understand it is 145, but how difficult would it be to sit reserve or hold a line there?

Shuttle the junior bases are IND, CMH, and LGA. There's been some movement because senior FOs are upgrading/leaving for other airlines.

Here's the latest info from the June bid awards:

Base Jr Lineholder Jr Pilot
ATL 04/2012 01/2013
CMH 02/2013 04/2013
IND 02/2013 03/2013
LGA 01/2013 04/2013
ORD 12/2012 04/2013

So as you can see every base has seen movement and new hires into it. I would expect LGA, CMH, and IND to remain more junior than ORD and ATL though. I myself am thinking of going to ORD since I can now hold a line there

American flying will start out of pit initially. If you like pit eould be my best bet. Be careful about moving to a base. With growth there is going to be a lot of movement on reoublic side of the house. Shuttle and chautauqua will replace the people moving on / up

Lol you're relying on the government for that? Good luck and
let me know how that goes. All these changes that are supposedly coming are a result of the Colgan accident 4 yrs ago? And they're still not in effect. Kickin the can down the road. Look for it to be pushed back again and again until people forget about it.

The rest rules will go into effect period and it's about time... There is no ambiguity about it. It was certainly tragic that it took the Colgan #3407 crash to make people wake up and understand.
