So you could sit for 10 years at 9E and wait for your turn to "flow" to Delta? You do realize how many 7 year FOs are still awaiting their turn to upgrade right? You also understand that you would be sitting ready reserve in JFK or LGA for eternity. Then once you do upgrade in 10 years you will have to sit another 2 years to get your captain time. It's a stupid idea.

Oh and btw you will be topped out at $36 per hour for the 10 year stint as FO.
