My apologies for the insult. Your general point about Skywest past and present not being everything it should is valid.

What is the reserve time in IAH these days?
How long before being able to bid long reserve (12h)?
What are the lines like? Mostly 3, 4 day trips?
Thanks!

IAH is mostly 4 days and reserve just depends on the flying. It has been shrinking for a while so reserve has been longer than other bases. The long call usually goes jr, but you never can really tell. I would say 6-12 months in Houston to hold a line

Has anybody recently gone through training on here? I've got a question about bidding for the Simulator days. They have Sims in SLC, ATL, and STL. Are the junior guys ending up waiting for the sims in ATL and STL or are they the ones staying in SLC? Seems to be about a 2 week difference on the CRJ.

The PPO is almost $400/month for the family. The cdhp is around $200/month and OO puts $1000 in a HSA for you under the cheap plan.

When does the Skywest US Airways PHX contract expires and will it be extended?

Seeing as there are 2 months left to assimilate the Bro pilots in to the E175 and CRJ, what do you guys think is going to happen with the summer flying fun once the artificial crew supply iv drip line runs out? More productive trips? Just massive credit requirements?

Yeah, that's why I wonder - as the training is at full steam for the last 4 months or more, partly due to the influx of Bro pilots, I think we're pretty well off with schedules these days.
