Same here. Did it for over 3 years without anyone saying anything

After looking through this thread I haven’t seen any recent posts about upgrade minimums, or just missed them. Are the captain minimums posted on the site hard mins for upgrade and DECs, or are they different if on property as an FO?

I had 1 entire 7 day tour where I never even left the hotel because our assigned jet never got out of mx.
They're also very performance limited. At Aspen once the temp hit the high 70's we couldn't make our single engine climb numbers.
I think my longest leg was around 3 hours and that was a ferry flight with full tanks. Throw some pax on and it's rare to go more than 2.0-2.5.
