I think most of the PFTs were already CAs when the DEC class came along. If they do another DEC class, what exactly is my recourse? Resign? Start over at another crappy regional at first year pay on reserve all over again? At least this place HAS to pay me as a CA if they hire more street CAs. I'd have a much better QOL making CA pay as a senior FO at Silver than any other option short of a major. And after a couple of years, I may not even need PIC time to get there. There isn't going to be much attrition at the very top of the list at 3M, since most of the top 50 or so are probably lifers. So, as a senior FO on CA pay, I can live in Florida and make more $$$
Not to be rude but from someone who was in a similar situation.....
Either upgrade get some good PiC experience or go fly a jet and move
On .

I agree with you guys being upset, and how the airline is looking to check a box so cheaply and not fulfill the safety intent of the regulation. But the ATP course is designed for people with little or no experience to pass the training in 2 days. Is no ideal but is not a course that is that difficult. During this testing you don't need to tear the seminole apart and put it back together. There is a difference between a type rating oral and checking and one just for an ATP. I agree with you guys that it sucks but is not something that is impossible.
I saw one of the guys in the crew room in FLL for my open time trip, and he was upset that what happened was mentioned in an email as people will figure out who he is.
So this exists...

Should of said to and from the trips that start outside of the domicile ie: im based in sdf and if my trips starts and finish in Tpa then ups has to get me comm ticket but if starts and finishes in sdf im responsible for my own positioning. About 80% of our trips has comm tickets and the rest are start in domicile but either way thank you for the ride wether its jumping or paying
I've been doing some thinking, and I think I will do that. Hopefully if they run Saab upgrades I can jump over to that

Definitely scab material, I think I know who it is, shady stuff. The Tom cooper days are gone, so should Mickey Mouse crap like that. Then again management shouldn't be cutting back door deals either behind the cba, not a good taste on a change of administration.

Does anyone think any of the DECs will be bumped out of their captain position when a new staffing bid comes out?!? Seniority is everything and I'm ok with that. Just need to know for planning purposes!!

Scab material? That word is being thrown around way to much these days.

But even with a staffing bid a DEC can't loose their spot unless a reduction or base closure occurs .

Can't be bumped out of position with a staffing bid unless there is a reduction of positions ,,,, ie, if currently there are 125 captain positions and they want to close a base , say Billings , and need to reduce captain positions by 25 spots then yes a DEC can loose there spot . Which would suck for the obvious reasons but even more cause you have crap seniority as a DEC and could take a while for you to get a chance to re upgrade .... As the whole list has to refuse an upgrade before you would get it back .
