Word has it their telling new hire classes there are only 30-40 guys eligible for upgrade and that upgrade is running 3-4 months. Any traction to this? No intentions of going there but found it interesting. I call bs.

Considering the FAA requires 1000hrs of 121 time. I find it highly unlikely

no way is upgrade 3-4 months. people that have been there for a couple years are still FOs.

Plan on 2 years unless the company gets additional flying.

Are they attracting enough warm bodies to keep their flying staffed given current attrition?

Not everybody new here is a 1500hr cfi FYI :D

Of course. They are just like any other regional; granted they aren't the BEST, but I doubt they are the worst. Every dog has fleas...some have a lot, some not so much. This industry in general leaves a lot to be desired unless you've got a sweet 91 gig or you're a 20 year captain at SWA. Regional is just.... meh.

No they have fleas and are by far the worst. Take any pay sheet from the above spurred gojetterz, it's pathetic .

So you would put Mesa and Great Lakes above GJ on the fleabag scale eh?

Who wouldn't?

i wouldn't.
