Even if i lived in base,after 9 years its probably time to move on in order to escape severe vareer stagnation.
The company definitely wants upgrades. It's the only thing that's really hurting our recruiting efforts. One thing I will say though about upgrade time is that the gap between 9 year guys getting the upgrade now and 3-4 year guys like myself is shrinking a lot; atleast on CRJ side. Roughly only 150 guys in that gap of 5-6 years! Means if we ever got some damn growth upgrades will drop like they did at SkyWest. Not to long ago I remember they too had 7+ year upgrades. Amazing what some new EJets did to that upgrade time. Last I heard 2-3 yrs now, which is where Xjt needs to be and can be with some solid growth.
