I would love to see everyone here in the new hire classes in Irving, but you need to look at it as what will work in YOUR situation in the short and longer term. No need to go somewhere, commuting across the country for the chance at a year more TPIC or Flow.

I personally do not feel like 3-500 more hours of TPIC matters right now looking at the legacy hiring patterns. Be aware you are competing with guys that have been at places like ENY, stuck with no movement and have 3-5K hours TPIC and FO's with thousands and thousands of SIC time all with Apps and interviews at the BIG 3. The only advantage you might get for a quick upgrade other then the pay bump is a better shot at going to an LLC faster. But many FO's have been going there as well with no TPIC time in their books.
