It's a use-use relationship, kinda like MESA.

What are the times for upgrade there and what are the chances of getting hired as a street captain? QOL?
I dont want to take a step backward in my career by going somewhere where I make less than what I do now, but commuting is starting to take its toll on me. The appeal of living where I want to live in domicile is the real reason I'm considering it. Anyone know of any other outfits that are hiring in the area?
Thanks for the help!

Your going to have to commute anyway once you move on. I dont know any "major" airline with a TPA base. So the question is do you want to fly a 1900 for a crappy company for crappy wages just to do what you are doing now?

to the best of my knowledge new hire captains will not be placed in tampa. Tampa and PBI are the two best bases that they have. There's rumors of new bases in the north east and I'm quite sure they will be the junior bases.
As far as holding a line right out or IOE...as an FO very possible, as a street hire captain, extreamly unlikely. You'll have probably 100 FO's senior to you that will continue to upgrade and get lines before you.

I would expect to be beneath all the upgraded FOs- its like that anywhere. Thats the problem with being a street captain- you will be at the bottom for a while any way you look at it.
