I don’t know. You have around a year of 121 now (800 hours?). You still need 200 more to upgrade at the 1000 hour mark, plus another year as a captain and you think you will be a check airman with around 2000 hours 121?

Possible, I guess.

When early in my Eagle days, I remember the big push to hire guys into the left seat of the Brazilias at ASA. Several left Eagle to chase the mythical quick upgrade only to have Comair strike and ASA to choke, and of course all the rest of the lost decade.

Times have definitely changed since then, but I still feel there is no sure thing when chasing upgrades with a crystal ball looking at today only.

Just my two cents. Best of luck.
