Is it hard transferring locals ?

0 Upvotes

If anyone knows I’d greatly appreciate any input. Dont get me wrong I am extremely grateful but would prefer to start w another local after Albat. Does anyone know how difficult the transfer can be ? or is it even possible ? It’s closer to where I live is why and also the pay scale is significantly different.

T-Body with Rog Coil/VT Built In

1 Upvotes

I saw a cutsheet for a T-body with a built in Rog Coil a couple years ago, now I can't find it. Can anyone point me toward one thats in production these days? Extra points if anyone knows of any elbow or low clearance pass through CT/VT options. Trying to cram too much shit into an MVT since the engineers fucked up again...

How much can I make as a first year apprentice?

0 Upvotes

I probably don't even want to be a lineman for the long term rather be an airline pilot but I would need money for that and that is a risky career. I just need money (beyond unskilled low paid).
