as it's been said there is no wait to upgrade here. #512 of 594 has completed ca training. Im not sure who is jr in school right now. If we don't keep getting guys w prior 121 time street CA are possible if Pdt takes 3 jets a month. Not sure if we stopped at 20 jets to catch up and get ppl line qualifyed prior to the busy months. or if the repo pilots still flying to the eastern shore.
We took delivery of jet 21 this past week. And there is pressure from the top to grow as fast as possible.

LOL. just read the email about the next jizzet. Maybe I should bypass the flow and just bank 250 hours a month until next year. That horrible 1st year pay cut won't cut so deeply. Plus they are hiring for the next 10 years right?? Nothing bad could ever happen haha.

Will do! Just crossing my fingers for D.C. Or Philly. I think it goes by age in the class, and by looking at the new hire class photos... might be Getting what no one wants. But a lot can change even some new hires got 75 miami in training.

The good thing about Miami 75 is lack of time zone changes in a trip.

A lot of guys bid over to MIA this last bid. It will be interesting to see what bases go junior in the next couple years after all the shuffling and what they do with group 3.

Last new hires to the 757 were in early 2015....shrinking fleet. I doubt you'll see any more vacancies for new hires. Junior pilot on the 757 now is 1000 numbers from the bottom of the list.

Signing Bonus Payment
How is the $21,200 signing bonus paid out? I’m assuming at the end of IOE? Is it one payment or spread out over a couple years like many other airlines are doing right now? I see that the $20,000 retention bonus is spread out but I haven’t seen anything about the signing bonus. Thank you.
