With Pinnacle, you have to come as an FO, and maybe put in for the CAPT upgrade while in FO training when the bid comes out. Be advised, you WILL HAVE TO fly as an FO for 100 hours before starting Capt upgrade training. Since you will be coming in as a street Capt, that is a new requirement. You need 3500 total, 2000 multi for the upgrade bid. Also, if you do get through training, you will be the low man on the pole and will sit reserve in Minni for at least 1 to 1.5 years...no kidding. The most junior base is DTW, it took 8 months just to hold a high speed line. Mem is also a senior base. 10 days off...6 day reserve, 2 days off, 6 dasy reserve, 2 days off, and thenn it is mixed...this is what you need to expect.
