I think it's getting close to the end of the quick upgrade. 150 flows left and the AA planes require about 110 captains.
So 260 captains needed. We have approximately 220 FO's as of last bid packet. So only 40 people hired will actually be needed to staff the captains seats. I think more than 40 are slated for class between now and January.
That doesn't account for any other attrition.
So you would most likely upgrade from attrition rather than growth. That could be "fast" or it might not. I think we'll have decent attrition after the flow ends, but that is my opinion.

You're right. I think people starting class after the first of the year will quickly advance up the FO seniority list, but they surely won't be seeing a quick upgrade. Current FO's on the line line will see 1-2 year upgrades depending on when they were hired-- and they will fill just about off the captain positions going forward. I think after the AA planes get here and the airline is staffed for that upgrades will settle at around 2-4 years, and that's what I expect for people starting after the new year.

Remember we have ALOT of people who won't have 1000 SIC in time.

When is the latest that all of this year's flows have to be released from Compass to move along to DAL?
Any idea how many are left for next year, and when we should get to the senior-most "guaranteed interview" pilot?

Are they still allowing a piece of scratch paper for the knowledge test?
