What is the upgrade over there? I'll bet it's shorter than the ASA side. If I remember correctly I believe it's 7 years now plus we are displacing 10 more captains in a few months. Probably make it around 8 years. Then your on reserve until about 11-12 years depending on aircraft. What's it look like over there?
The most junior FO awarded captain in our last bid on 12/22/11 was hired 6/19/06. The most junior captain who does not have to be on reserve was hired 7/06/05. I also believe they will continue to upgrade.
