True. It took over 10 years seniority to hold it when I was lucky enough to snag it. It goes to 13 years seniority now and there are only around 50 SICs and 180 or so pilots overall in the fleet. I wouldn't bet a career starting here to go for it or anything else at NetJets in these times.

As far as QOL, that’s subjective and is not relevant to any discussion on these boards.(...)
Best statement written on a pilot forum ever.

The problem Tom is there’s a member here that is simply incapable of being honest, and people aren’t willing to sit back and let it go.

In that case, refute the false information with better information, but do not insult the person with whom you disagree. That would violate forum rules. Do not expect Mods to know who is lying, or to take your word for it.
People on both sides of this argument have gotten infractions, and if it doesn’t stop, another thread will close.

6-7yr captain (if they ever exist) is a base pay of 135k? You’d be so junior that you’d rarely sit in the left seat.

That is not true. Of course you will not be PIC when flying with another PIC, but NJ still has plenty of FO’s. And also not true regarding left seat. I NEVER ran into a Captain at NJ that while flying with another Captain did not let him/her fly from the left seat (I sure there a handful of clowns)

Frequently the same jackwagons who don’t realize they should have retired during Obama’s first term...

That’s good for you but not the point I was making. Everybody is so caught up in “what’s the upgrade time” that they forget that one, you will not be a good captain until you are an exceptional F/O and two you can make a good living as a 10 year F/O even at a place like NetJets. I get it, everybody wants to fly with their favorite captain, but there is something to be said for the F/O that understands they get to chose when they want to be involved.
