In practice, you needed at least a years experience on the aircraft before they'd consider you for an IP position, unless you had a LOT of IP/Checkairman experience. Even if the contract permitted it (which it didn't) the likelihood of getting an IP job on an aircraft you had no experience on would have been zip.

The NWA school house was much better... real line pilots instructing. I understand we need to save $$$. However, not at the cost of quality instruction.
