And I'm sure this has been addressed but what are ppl thinking upgrade times and projection times for the United CPP will be?

Flow from the pool haulted for the summertime, but will start again shortly after. If u are in the pool waiting then I think it's a matter of how long it will take u to meet the requirements (1000hrs TPIC, Degree etc) b4 getting a class date. The thing with the CPP at C5 is that we are currently a small group still, so ONCE YOU'RE IN THE POOL flowing to mainline is quicker cuz there's more flour than water.

As with any airline, I would take the upgrade times that recruiters tell you with a mountain of salt.
It will largely depend on how many airplanes we end up with. Right now, the company is focused on parking the dashes and transitioning all of those pilots over to the ERJ. That is a lot of pilots to run through transition and upgrade before your number would be called.

Looks like we added 5 to the list this month so far, don't think that'll come close to covering attrition. Last weeks crew room visit, mgmt still thinks our sign on bonus and quick upgrades will bring in the applicants. I almost spit my pizza out when I heard them say that.
