Totally reeks of seniority circumvention.

Our Union better pull out everything they have to squash this crap.
We can't take on pilots that won't upgrade. I have no problem with the program so long as there is a captain requirement.

It may not even be Endeavor, fwiw.

CORRECTION: It will not only be Endeavor.

I don’t think our union can do anything either unfortunately.

And as much as this ****es me off that Delta does sh!t like this I’m happy to stay right here for the rest of my career.

It’s the young guys that should be ****ed that they’ve announced a career progression outside of Endeavor that’s better than what they have, even though we’ve been told that wouldn’t happen.

You’re right.

Overzealous wording on my part.

How about career progression circumvention.

Well, technically you're correct if the programs goes as we read it will. But what it doesn't express is what of current employees. I wouldn't automatically deduce that we are all technically stuck here. It would cost more to keep the elders here and let the newbs move on. So, I draw no conclusion from this Delta Propel Pilot Career Path Program. Gosh what a monumentally stoooopid name by the way.

I doubt anyone 30 or younger will be too terribly disappointed with their career progression opportunities. Pending another lost decade like many of us experienced, they won't have to bare the same cross guys like you had to carry. I see this as a modest win for the industry, as well as a positive for the guys coming up and on property. It's not better, it's just a more defined millennial-approach - mentorship, handholding, helicopter parenting. Instant gratification. A different cloth by which pilots are cut. Everything I'm trying NOT to do for my kids, but at the same time, reluctantly, glad to have available.

Yes I'm quoting my own comment. How many pilots does it take to staff 60 A220's? When/If this thing goes live, it will suck up crews from regionals, no doubt. Maybe we ought to work out a flow to this startup.
