Hoping that's the case... Got my offer mid Feb and was told relatively recently we are "2-4 months delayed" Not sure if it helps or hurts that I'm a Cadet but I interviewed about a month before I hit my ATP mins so hopefully they'll prioritize (on the cadet side of things) people like me who are already ready and not hold slots for guys and gals who might be ready soon... If it helps they're not fingerprinting/logbook reviewing us cadets because those are only valid for 90 days... Mid Summer seems like a fair, albeit optimistic guess.

I fly with a lot of new hires that brag about crediting 90-100 hours. All while having 5-7 hard days off for the month. But they are getting that money!

crediting 90-100hrs while only having 5-7 hard days off??? That sounds disgusting.

It would be that bad if you're in base and flying 35 hours a month total.

Are they picking up straight Open time? Or trips that someone posted? If they’re getting used every RSV day and then picking up OT on days off…jeez.

Now If they’re only getting called in half the time, and then picking up an easy trip someone posted for pickup, that makes more sense. Someone is trying to get a couple days off, reserve guy is off and wants to pick up a little extra flying. Mutually beneficial. Seven days off on paper, but maybe not getting called a day or two each block. That’s the only way I’d be inclined to pick up flying.
