Out of curiosity, does anything prevent management from hiring a non-pilot, training him/her, paying to get him to earn the required “minimums, and then putting him in indoc?
Anyway, seems like something to improve on the next contract if it’s something that pilots want to change.

Nope, not worth it. Company just wanted to let him fly. ALPA didn't want to let the UPS model take root and forced him to get a seniority number.
