Best case scenario, just when you hit 2 years. But you know this, because you are arguing with me about Envoys contract.

I've already explained why you are wrong. Just admit it and move on. You started this by saying a 1500 hour CFI can be a LCA in 2 years, now you are back pedaling and hit the wall. You just have no clue.

You must be an Envoy recruiter.
I've said since the beginning that I was talking about pilots in general. I even quoted my words early on when you lied about what I was saying. The 1500 hour pilot was just one scenario.

Top of page 3: "I'm aware of that which is why the first three words I said was, "If a pilot"

Are you saying that company policy at Envoy prevents a pilot from becoming an LCA in their first year and second year? You said, "Best case scenario, just when you hit 2 years." Do you have an official quote to back this up?

What reason are you actually giving for why a pilot with thousands of hours of 121 time could not possibly become an LCA at Envoy within the first two years?

You need to serve a certain number of hours as PIC and be a CA for certain number of months at Envoy before you can be a LCA.

But you would know this, right?

Oh, you don't . Sorry, forgot you are just full of it.

Right... so there's nothing prohibiting a direct entry Captain from becoming an LCA in the first two years or someone from upgrading quickly and becoming an LCA within the same timeframe. You've just admitted that.

That means you lied when you said this, "Because you can't be a LCA in the same year you got hired."

And you lied when you said this, "Best case scenario, just when you hit 2 years."

Your goal posts are very flexible I see.

No, I just said the exact opposite. You just have no clue.

Let adults talk here okay? Go back to your side hustle as an Envoy recruiter.

I would be using these new WO rates as leverage instead of defending sub par rates for heavies but that’s just me.

Bottom line, these new “rates” are desperate measures during desperate times. Maybe it will bode well for some and not so much for others and time will tell. Either way, I hope those who are able to capitalize on it do and may the rest of us as well industry wide. Issue at hand is a looming recession perhaps so timing is everything and especially for those undergoing negotiations or starting them soon. Managements all over are sure to be watching this outcome as well as dragging things out as inflation rises, wages taper, gas prices continue to punch holes in wallets, war continues, leadership wanes, etc., etc., etc… It’s definitely “Frogger” out there right now!

Since we're talking things that are at least almost impossible.... Can I be the direct entry CEO? I'll make you all LCAs.

You're saying it's almost impossible for a direct entry Captain with thousands of hours of 121 time and possibly previous LCA experience at another airline to become an LCA at Envoy within his first two years? If so, explain why it's almost impossible.

I gave a few examples of how a pilot could get to that near $300/hour rate by 2 years and you're suggesting that they're all "almost impossible"?

We now have an Envoy cheerleader. Envoy management loves pilots like you.
