Someone with tpic in a 175 does nothing when you’re going to a 737 or a320. Not sure what upgrading to ca requires but I’m willing to bet if anything would lead to quicker upgrade it would be time in type over tpic time at a regional. I could be very wrong. But by the time you get to a legacy you’re legally ca eligible. So the only thing hold back an upgrade would be company policy and seniority.
