Spirit doesn't consider you an employee till after the type. That's a FACT. With another FO today and he's 9 months here still on reserve. He wasn't happy about not holding a line anytime soon. DTW most Senior Res line is Elliot and he/she is 4/17 hire! 12 months and MAY come off reserve. Bids 75. Those are the facts. You're the only one misinforming people. The union spin about merger is just that. The union said point blank they have NO information on a merger. Pure spin so you'd vote yes.
They do not delay CASS until type complete. Just not true. If it once was, it’s not anymore. When I went through almost 2 years ago, everybody was CASSed about 4 weeks in. I went home on the JS the weekend before my check ride.
Somebody in DTW might be on RSV after 9 months, but that is most certainly not the case in every base. Just looked it up, most junior FO in FLL with a line in March was hired 08/01/2017. That’s 7 months from hire date, which is probably about 5 months from release to line.
