It seems like the 145 is shrinking and I'll be here 3 more years. I'd like to get to the 175 and off reserve at some point.
I realize I'd have to proffer to displace. Will they honor the guys that proffer for it, even if they have a seat lock? Or will they skip us and displace FO's over to CA?
I'm in the same boat. You are likely from Texas as well. I don't think we would be able to hold 175 DFW. Essentially they are displacing 175 DFW to 175 ORD without calling it a displacement. That paragraph is extremely sketchy. How can they have a displacement without calling it a displacement. The term "qualified pilots" is used in this paragraph. FOs aren't qualified CAs. The company is reaching very far to think they can force someone to upgrade.
