Default Any eagle cats on the prowl here?

I'm really thinking hard about applying to Eagle in the very near future. I have almost (or a little more than) a thousand hours (250 or so ME), most of my documents ready but I've just been enjoying instructing and also kind of nervous. I mean, its the big thing -- you don't want to blow it, after all.

But I was curious -- whats the current (or projected, or imaginary -- feel free to take a wild guess) reserve time in dallas on either the CRJ or the ERJ? I live in San Antonio so I'm thinking that a KSAT-KDFW commute won't be too bad on me once I get out of reserve, if I can swing the Dallas basing. (So I guess a second question would be: How senior is the DFW base?)

I appreciate any answers at all.

Dunno how I caught this, because I suck at thread surfing, but I did.

I'm a newhire at Eagle right now.. and I'm currently in systems training.

I don't really know how thoroughly I can answer your questions, but feel free to PM me. I'll do the best I can for ya.

Tell you this right now though- if you're going to get on with Eagle, now's the time. There's a big hiring wave ramping up. Get a seniority number now rather than later.
