As a SLC guy I would say if you like being jr and staying junior come on over. I have been at Delta 14 years and am still in the bottom 50% on the 737. I have moved backward 21% in the category over the last 3 years and have never moved up a single number in any bid since spring of 2011. Most Jr capt in the base is a 5600ish. It looks like they are going to reduce the 767 FO's in SLC from 96 to 76 this November according to the staffing report, so I would imagine most of those guys will displace into the 73 and 320. For me I would expect upgrade to capt to be 7-10 years longer in SLC than NY, DTW or ATL. Depending on when you were hired that number could be reduced by a few years. I just flew with a capt who said that the average age capt in the 73 in SLC was 54 1/2 but I don't have any idea if that is true. Just recently the I was talking to regional chief pilot and he said he had been told that SLC was currently the right size and to not expect any future growth. Of course who knows, things change daily. So with all that said it is a choice to live out west, mountains vs money and seniority.
