The 1900 Bases up north will remain (Billings, Parkersburg, DuBois, Bradford)
I think I mispoke, I was told holding FLL FO out of class for the 1900. They have hired me as an FO.
So I'm curious, are these FO's you speak of not eligible for captain right now? Because that is what struck me as odd, and if a bunch of their FOs aren't meeting captain mins, then I can see why there is a 6 month upgrade time.
