The lack of upgrades hopefully won't continue forever. Change tends to happen fast in this industry. But, perhaps I'm too optimistic.
Delta has a base in SLC. Just sayin'. If you went to a FAR 141 undergrad school and a GPA of 3.0 or higher you may be eligible for an interview (it seems this is an unwritten requirement for civilian only candidates).
Your estimation is literally wrong. There are no upgrades going on right now and the only reason the most junior CA is a 2005 hire is because it was a Phenom FO to CA upgrade. Upgrades are longer than 10 years right now. And management isn’t upgrading anyone outside of the CBA agreed upon nmber.
