Keep in mind that the first revenue flying starts (I think) June 15 and is just 3 cities with 1 airplane. I don't see any way ALL of the initial cadre and current trainees will have 75 hours by anytime in July... Simply not enough days in the month to accommodate all of those guys. Also keep in mind that there are upgrade classes currently and upcoming every couple weeks as we speak. It's going to take a lot to get all of those Captains off green-on-green.
Rumor I heard is flights will initially be operated by a pair of Captains to expedite getting their 75 hours before new hires hit the line, at least initially.
Good luck everyone!
