No, it is growth. We just received a company email that actually stated that. I have seen new hires get awarded CVG within 4 months of training. I think the reserve thing has been answered. It will be very short in JFK. The reserve guys and gals in MCO do not get called very often. We are running new hire classes every Monday with 15 people per class, so you would have a large number of people under you before you even complete your check ride.
3000 hours is the time for captain. It is going to be just about the same everwhere on an RJ. This is not a company set time at any company. It is demanded by the insurance companies.

Actually, per an email from Jim Murray, the extra positions in JFK are to cover the flying that is already there. They are just moving the flight hours out of the CVG bid packet to the JFK bid packet.

most of the guys in my class and the class behind me were awarded CVG within one month. And as of the third we were awarded the 700 due to a vacancy bid. Not sure when training will start for the 700 but it should be around the middle of summer. I'm not too worried about upgrade time, I want a couple years of flying the CRJ under my belt before I get upgraded.

I will say this though, get in now while the getting in is good. It is not only how far you are away from the top but most importanly how far you are away from the bottom.

That is a little more accurate as to what the email says, but the hours that are being moved to JFK is not costing CVG any flight loss.
