I'm a cqfo starting dec 18. I'm wondering two things. Can anyone tell me how certain the American contract is? And for what duration it's good for?
Also, does anyone want to take a guess what my first year might look like? Eg: upgrade time? A friend of mine in training says their guessing 12 month upgrades right now. My math suggests less than that. Thanks!

CQFO? Huh? Certain? Well they're coming plus more potentially. Don't remember length, 6 years? Yes you absolutely should be able to upgrade in that time.

Maybe he meant to post in the TS airlines thread?

no problem, we were thinking you were saying CP hired you as a captain qualified FO. Congrats on the class date. If you start on December 18th, you will probably upgrade sometime around December of next year, maybe earlier. There are at least 40 or 50 pilots at this company right now, who will not have 1000 SIC by late fall of next year. Good luck to you.

I agree, it was confusing. Had to see if I accidently clicked the TSA thread. I hear it's almost double that. Good for everyone getting on. If you don't have the time better start flying!

Chief pilot estimated 30 when I asked. Who knows for sure really?

It seems that most guys who have been based in LAX since they were hired will hit 1000 right at their 1 year mark. That's been the case for most of the guys I've talked to, and myself as well. I was hired early this year and will hit 1000 121 just over a year (of line flying) as I sat all of 2 weeks on reserve, and then it's been 85+ block each month with no end in sight. The guys that'll be short are the MSP and DTW guys that will be looking at a 1.5yr upgrade that were hired early this year and have been on reserve or a CDO like since hitting the line.

Where can I get a seniority list? I don't have access to the cpz alpa site yet, but can access the company site.
