You said 40 would flow starting in January. 30 flowed. How is that accurate? Must be an alternative fact.

What was the class drop of 30th Jan?

2-2.5 upgrade is not out of the realm of possibility. If we continue to hire at this rate then 2-2.5 will most definitely happen. I wouldn't be surprised if Charlie Bucket came close to being the 2.5 upgrade time. I think he will at least be awarded one on the bid.

5 CRJ and only 6 175 and the rest 145.

This is especially true with so many FOs bypassing upgrade. I think because of them Charlie Bucket will actually happen by the end of the year.

Can someone tell me the etymology of Charlie Buckett? Please

It's not "so many" I'm the number 5 fo in LGA and id be 15 in ord. I'm guessing other airplanes the same. I'm still a month from my upgrade class date. It's a small amount bypassing and many a class or two. Saying 10% of fo bypassing in my mind isn't many fos.

Also from what I see it's because of children and or spousal income

I think it's a 'finding the golden ticket' reference.

Soooo where's this 40/month?! Lol

If you can hired at 1500 hours upgrade at a decent regional on 2.5 years and hit mainline in 5 you hit the lottery and had a golden ticket. Aside from all the negative posts here that'd be a hell of a career ESP at 23 and it looks like a group who came.here at the darkest of times may actually see it.


Our schedules need alot of work but many of these people don't know how awful some regionals are, cutting bleed leak sensors and putting car parts in airplanes and firing guys for not departing in bad conditions, and trying to prevent unions on property, and many more. Things envoy/eagle has never even gone near.


Yes the schedules need to be fixed and a certain CPO needs some serious change of relations with its pilots because it ruins the desire for everyone based here to even want to workthere but it's IMO alot better than working for Hulu's or Mesa
