This is another solution to the regional captain shortage. Skywest is starting their own 135 charter to do it. Republic is just partnering with cape air to do the same thing.
By getting applicants to get to a 135 operator and gain hours there to get them qualified for 121 pic operations faster.
You can bet there will be an agreement that these pilots will upgrade as soon as they hit 1000 hours of combined 135/121 time. Only caveat is they have be PIC in the 135 operation- so that’s the reason for the unrestricted ATP
So instead of getting paid 90 an hour as a new FO they are getting paid less, not flying 121, and then using the hours to qualify the pilot for 121 PIC operations without having to have them fly 1000 hours as an FO in the 175.

I expect, just like it was 20 years ago, you need to go somewhere to gain applicable experience towards Part 121 upgrade before you become competitive. Everything is cyclical.

I just received this, also,
I already have almost 1,000 hours part 121. Maybe its just a mass emailing.

Don’t see how that’ll help rpa. They’ll need an unrestricted atp before they can qualify to upgrade. They’ll basically qualify for in restricted atp and be eligible to go to a lcc well before being captain eligible. Adding more FOs just means they’ll worsen the fo to captain ratio they currently have. In fact FOs going to lcc helps them now only because it gets fos that aren’t flying off pay roll. If they had an FO shortage then you could make the argument for different tactics to prevent them from leaving.
