Really? I thought the wait at Silver was much longer than that since you have a lot of lifers from Alaska with the company?

We do have lifers but we are growing so fast that I would honestly say that upgrade is about 2 years max at this point if not shorter. Its hard to tell with all the movement but 2 years would be a safe bet. Most of the people that are First Officers don't have the time to be captain or choose to stay in that position for quality of life.

August classes are scheduled. They are very busy though. We just took three more airplanes Friday, Dulles opens today and I heard it on good authority that puerto rico opens december (eagle pulling out) and there are 6 Saab 2000's coming. 5 from over seas and 1 domestic being purchased. They want at least one in puerto Rico in December / January.

Don't forget that Atlanta opened today as well.

I have heard that United wants us in Houston by the end of the year.

I heard it too but it's going to be expensive to train crews/get the paperwork in order...it's a completely new type.
