Hitting 1000 will be easy once you finish training... and get off reserve which could take 7-12months. There are December hires in the sims now. And the most junior lineholder at Columbia on the September award is a December hire.

Also 90k a year of "McDonalds Wages" for 50 years (or 30) would be a pretty solid middle-class retirement by 90% of the population's account.

Dare I ask, any updates on ZW’s future? New TA, fleet update, new pay rates?
Have a Sept 1 class date.

Not true. PP went to line flying status because he ages out of airline flying in mid-October and wanted to fly some before he has to retire.
