why would one pay more than another, for a 1st year new hire ? Which one would be quicker to Captain ?
Thank you
There's more 145s than 175. That means better movement, better variety of schedules, better options, quicker upgrades. The 175 gravy train has stopped. I think the guys getting on now will be on reserve or at the bottom for a while. But I don't think you have any more options now anyways, they're hiring mostly into the 145 in LGA. There's the CRJ but that's in Ord and you're basically just keeping the seat warm until they get rid of the plane shortly.
