What are the upgrade times looking like?
I would say your a little lower on TT than the typical accepted applicant. We have had a few guys come in around 2500 hours, but we're mostly military from what I've seen. The most junior upgrades are happening on the MD80, and mostly are taken by guys who are less worried about equipment and base... Those concerned with base and QOL tend to stay in the right seat until they can hold what they want. The first group of folks can upgrade in as little as 13-15 months (most likely increasing), as of today.
