Apart from the three letters of recommendation you need to upgrade, the GOM also requires either 2500 TT and 1000 PIC in "Large Group II Transport Category aircraft (turbojets above 41,000 lb), or 1500 SIC in Large Group II Transport Category aircraft (turbojets above 41,000 lb) and 500 hours company time .

If you come here looking for a quick upgrade, make sure you have the prerequisite experience. You will only log about 500 hours a year on the Guppy.

A bit off the running theme of the latest posts

The offer letter says something about not making big changes until all the background checks have been verified. Did anybody get such confirmation email or heard anything to that effect, or is the next expected email going to be the travel/hotel/training details?

Thanks!

Incidentally, under part 117 (Which obviously does not apply) this trip is illegal in at least three ways that I've figured out:
117.23 (c) (1) More than 60 flight duty hours in 168 consecutive hours.
117.27 More than three consecutive flight duty periods that infringe on the window of circadian low.
117.13 For report times between 1700-2159 local, with three or four legs, the maximum duty period is 11 hours.

Really good point to consider for those looking for the PIC time
