<legal disclaimer> Pure speculation: I was under the impression that sitting in the jumpseat (any carrier) required you to be a 121 certified pilot. Some would argue that occurs when you get your type rating/complete checkride. Except you are not signed off to fly on the line. You must complete OE with a LCA. So, I guess it depends on how you read the reg.

Well before you go on IOE you'll do a couple of 'observation flights' which are positive space in the jumpseat. It's after your checkride but before IOE, maybe that helps? I know it's not quite the same as just jumpseating for the sake of it because it's still part of training, but it's still jumpseating nonetheless.

Haha I love how everytime that pops up on something whether it be in the aircraft, uniforms, ground equipment etc. it stirs the rumor mills. Interesting stuff though.

Delta is buying JetBlue, selling Comair to Virgin America in the process, and merging with United to make a super legacy carrier

Everyone who got a line in December, congrats! Enjoy it, it probably wont last. I got Long Call 1 for December with 6 ready reserves and a stupid 2 day trip that ends Xmas Eve. I plan on flying as little as possible during December

I saw some clothes that said Comair/Delta Connection/Northwest Airlink/Virgin America Express or was it Virgin Slut Express? I can't remember?!
