TSA: Captain Qualified First Officers

PSA: 8 months for now, might increase to 1.5 and hold steady there

Mesa: 8 months, maybe street captains?

Compass: 12 months?

Piedmont: 3 years and dropping

Gojet: 3 years and stagnant?

Skywest: 4 years and slowly dropping

Air Wisconsin: 5 years and dropping?

Republic: 7 years and possibly dropping?

ASA/Expressjet: 8 years and stagnant?

Envoy: 8 years and stagnant?

Endeavor: 8 years and possibly dropping?

Horizon: possibly dropping to 2-3 years?

Small change but TSA is hiring CQFOs, I just didn't want there to be any confusion about the job opportunity here. Either way you'll likely hold a full Captain award quickly if you meet the required mins.

Compass is less than 12 month upgrade.

I heard second hand that RAH is 8 years and stagnant/increasing.

AWAC was 4.5 and closing on 4 years, but it's back to 5 years now.

PSA is the same, more or less. Everyone expects it to climb to 1.5 years once enough new pilots get their time and everything stabilizes.

I'd be starting IOE if it was 4 years. Word is upgrades are on hold for the time being.

I know several of the guys in the current class. 4.5 years for the most senior and 4 years and a few months for the others. I was just at the school house and heard nothing about holding off on upgrades.
