I think most of the PFTs were already CAs when the DEC class came along. If they do another DEC class, what exactly is my recourse? Resign? Start over at another crappy regional at first year pay on reserve all over again? At least this place HAS to pay me as a CA if they hire more street CAs. I'd have a much better QOL making CA pay as a senior FO at Silver than any other option short of a major. And after a couple of years, I may not even need PIC time to get there. There isn't going to be much attrition at the very top of the list at 3M, since most of the top 50 or so are probably lifers. So, as a senior FO on CA pay, I can live in Florida and make more $$$
Don't fall for this trap ..... If you want to be a lifer your self sure stay as a FO and make captain pay. Won't get you hired somewhere else of your a 1900/ 340 guy with zero pic tho. Either get your time there or get out , I say this
Not to be rude but from someone who was in a similar situation.....
Either upgrade get some good PiC experience or go fly a jet and move
On .
