Well now you can come back and start at the same pay rate that you had when you left. And then upgrade in two years for that valuable PIC time.

I think you missed my tongue in cheek post. Was intended to make fun of a certain user who hasn't been around

Besides, someone getting hired now will not upgrade in 2 years. I don't know why people keep assuming current upgrade times should likely apply to new hires-unless it's a period of 12 months or less. Skywest has literally hired over 2000 pilots in the past 2 years. They aren't all going to upgrade within 2 years...or at least it's unlikely IMO

True....I think this it might go back up a bit after this month. There were alot of people who didn't want to upgrade until after Jan 1 and eventually they will get to the 175 FO's who have already been bypassed.

Just for some number control here.
2000 FOs hired in last two years - possibly.
The Fo with 2000 FOs junior to him has many many years of longevity.

Meaning turn over.

Endeavor just upped their new hire bonus by another $7000, for a total of $60k first year. Seriously if you're Midwest situated why would anyone NOT go there to fly the same equipment and get a guaranteed interview with DAL? I think I know what that announcement may be about....
