First Officer candidates with over 1200 hours total time can qualify for our Accelerated Captain Pathway Program. These candidates are hired as a PC-12 First Officer and have the opportunity to be selected for the Captain role early. After First Officer training, these pilots can elect to complete a one-day Upgrade Evaluation. Successful completion of the Upgrade Evaluation results in Captain pay and selection into a Captain training process.
This means once FO IOE is completed you can apply for the Accelerated Captain Program. What they have been doing is once a pilot applies they conduct the Upgrade Evalution (which is done in their PC-12 Mission Fit trainer) during the pilot's next rotation. If you pass the evaluation, and most pilots do, you start drawing Captain pay while continuing to fly as FO until the next Captain Upgrade class.

To the Planesense pilot (bald head, drives a White Toyota pickup) who just got off the crew van in CLT at Wilson Air…
YOU ARE A FIRST CLASS D-BAG!!!
The van driver literally loaded your bags, and drove you directly to your car and dropped you off and you didn’t tip the man a penny. What kind of moron are you? This is exactly what gives pilots a bad rap.
But don’t worry, when he took me to my car, I tipped him for both of us.

Yep we have several knuckleheads at this company, just like most other companies out there. I bet he expenses the $3 dollar tip though.
