Some people meet their fate on the road they took to avoid it.
You're very correct. Imho who ever came up with this Propel idea didnt think throught all possible requirements propel pilots might need to meet; as in being a captain for x amount of time before being able to move on.
If propel pilots can get a flow from being a cfi to a regional to a major when certain criteria are met... why cant we have the same. Dont bash me for mentioning "flow"
