Given that he/she has been there less than a year, I would guess they came with other experience, e.g. 121, MIlitary.

Am I reading that right that it's a 175 FO upgrading to a 400 CA?

That's correct, he's got prior airline experience though. Can't build 1000 hours 121 inside of 5 months of line flying.

All I gotta say is enjoy your remaining time on the jet...the real horizon experience awaits you

Any E175 upgrades? Whats the most junior jet captain?

Jeez, even though I've flown the Q before, now that I'm going into the jet, I'd be hesitant to upgrade into the Q without being current. It's a handful to fly.

Looks a couple jet upgrades. About four years seniority is what it takes.

I have over 3000 hours in turboprops and I find the Q to be a handful.

Is that four years going to come down when the new 175s start showing up?

Maybe I am looking at it wrong, but I see three Q FOs that got 175 CA.
