Let me run this by folks. What would be your opinion of a "Delta job subscription service" which a guy could buy into for $21,000 a year if they were a Captain and about $15,000 a year if they were a First Officer. In exchange for buying into that service they would be given a guaranteed interview.
Would we support such a program; the sale of Delta interview slots?

I'd prefer FO-FO for initial since you can concentrate on FO stuff and help each other. After you are familiar CA-FO works perfect.
On some aircraft (like the 737) there are Captain specific toys (like the Heads Up Guidance System) that take a lot of time to get through all the possible permutations while you sit there with nothing to do.

They do both depending on need. Both have their upsides. If the Captain has been on the airplane, that's a plus. However, he's probably not going to want to study flows with you, etc ....

Buzz, I'm in the middle of SLC/LAX (LAS) and a BIG downside to commuting to SLC is the lack of flexibility due to the time change - you can't make ANY early reports in SLC due to changing from PST to MST. I have been based at SLC before and quite frankly the weather in LAX means you rarely have a problem getting into LAX and the time change and additional commute time (LAX is 42 minutes, SLC is 1+20), less frequency (at least from LAS) and the time change means that any small bump in seniority is quickly overridden by the down sides I mentioned.
