Does that mean ENY flow beats Aviate by a year?
Trying to understand your statement. How does 12 months as captain and DECs put anyone on an equivalent position as DECs have no seniority. Also, with training and just physical limitations, there is no way to get 2K hours with a carrier, best case at MAYBE 27-30 months and then there is still that whole seniority thing.
