There are about 1200+/- first officers at eagle right now. Last quarter (3 months) there were 73 upgrades. I believe in the previous quarter there were slightly less but still better than the 15-20 per month advertised. My guess is that someone starting now will upgrade in 4-5 years (taking into account age 65).

I looked at the list and there are now only about 150 FOs hired before 2004 (none in 2002 or 2003) so it looks bad on paper but in about the next year it will drop dramatically.

Theres nothing wrong with eagle by the way it's a great place to work. I picked it because it seemed to me to be the best company to work for, not upgrade time. Also, my understanding is that some of the upgrade trouble is actually caused by too few FOs. Good luck
