This logged PIC time would open doors up for some mid seniority pilots to move on sooner.

This does mean that the remaining 800 Captains would have to move on relatively quickly (assuming no growth) for most of the FO's to have a shot at moving on. If, however, a PIC type rating was attainable out of initial training, it would help some pilots move on earlier as they could LOG PIC time anytime they were the Sole Manipulator of the flight controls, even though they aren't Acting as PIC. This logged PIC time would open doors up for some mid seniority pilots to move on sooner, which would result in movement for most of the FO's, and could actually result in a lower overall operating cost since the average FO salary would go down with the average FO seniority. Just a thought.
I think I read that you are hoping to start class here eventually. Why don't you revisit that question once you get out on the line... |

Not to sound rude, but the fact that you are even suggesting this makes it clear that you have a lot to learn about Eagle, and the regional industry as a whole.

ATR is an awesome airplane..and the island flying is second to none.
The problems with Eagle's island flying is the 9 hour over nights..pretty much everywhere you go.it's only 9 hours. Not so much fun :( But the views..oh my! I don't fly on eagle, but...hey!!! Flying in the caribbean wonderful. =) I teach in a flight school in SIG, like 5nm from SJU...and I hope to get ATR in SJU if I get hired by eagle. :) If not is ok... I'll go anywhere :) |
