That is all...…. Wow! Get hired here the next few years and you're set.

What about group 4 FO?

Depending on base.... Probably 5 years. Crazy movement on last bid.

Great to hear! Thanks for posting billyho!

Yep. 3rd Year making 259.00 an hour ain't bad.

What's the guarantee and can you pick up unlimited from other pilots and company?

uuuhhhhh. Unlimited? Sure cuz 90 hours at $250 ain’t enough. Go ahead. Make it 150 hours. Hell go for 200!!!

So everyone has really junior CAs now that’s no longer a shocker like it was when DL first started this shift.
so now the question needs to be when can I be a line holding CA?

I was hired at UA in 2013:

I can hold one of the most Junior lines as a CA in EWR/SFO 320.

i can hold CA in EWR/DCA/SFO 320 and EWR/DCA/SFO/LAX 737.

holding junior CA is great but how long do you have to suck reserve eggs? A lot of pilots at majors won’t bid up until they are a solid line holder making forward progress in the seat difficult. Iv held CA for a little over a year now and am just at the point of junior crappy line.

With the amount of people leaving this airline the next 8-10 years it won't be long at all. We probably got to hire over 1400 a year over the next 8 years and that might not even be enough.

It’s honestly a little funny.

“I HAVE TO WAIT 5 YEARS AT MAINLINE TO HOLD A LINE AS A CA?!?!? WTF?”
