For the current CPZ people on property what are your opinions on the outlook for someone starting class later this month. As pointed out earlier, the most junior captain is right about a 3 year upgrade but a lot of people have been hired after him. Considering the amount that are going to flow this year, in the future, and with all the hiring over the last 8 months or so what do y'all think is rough timeline on holding a build-up line, line, and upgrade.
Thanks

Is Compass still hiring in to the LAX base or is that complete?

It's at it's target capacity now but it'll almost be like a revolving door for the bottom half as MSP FO's upgrade and LAX FO's on the bottom fill the MSP vacancies. But there will probably be more MSP vacancies for new hires than in the previous couple of bids. Just a guess though!

LAX flying
What are the trips (destinations) and schedules like for the LAX base? Very many overnights or a lot of out and backs?
Thanks
Thanks

Mostly day trips at the moment. Rumor is that should change as we start the shuttle between LAX/SFO to SEA. Deltanet also shows us operating LAX-PDX and SEA/SFO-SAN in June.

Ha!! That would be pretty sweet though 
We're also doing weekend service between LAX- GPI/MSO/BZN, but those might just be day trips. The trip mix will probably diversify in May / June as the base is fully staffed and new routes open up on the west coast

Upgrade time?
Thanks for the information from my previous post. So after researching this thread, Would it be reasonable to assume if a pilot starts class in April 2014, that it would be about a 2 -2.5 year upgrade time given the flows and other attrition? From what I have read there would be about 300 pilots flowing at 20 / month - is my math correct? Given everything goes as planned, as it always does 
Thank you.
Thank you.
