If you are talking about being a CAPT to get that all too important PIC Jet time in order to move on..........I agree. If you look at the FDX seniority system our JR 727 Capts have are over 3/4 the way down the overall seniority list (3900 out of 4800 total). Our wide body Capt are at the 65%.
Many FO could have held CAPT years ago but choose to put quality of life ahead of money.........imagine that, what a concept.
