I take every upgrade time told me by a recruiter with a large grain of salt. A my current place they told us 18 months, but we can't keep FOs right now.
As for GoJet, it seems like there's a lot of FOs leaving for bigger and better things, not just Captains.
I was told August would be the first class beyond April.
Reserve is really that short in RDU? How many days off are line holders getting? Are you bidding lines or PBS? Online trip trading?
