I interviewed Monday and had an email the next morning. I could have taken the June class but I have a training contract so July it is!

Thanks! Looking forward to it.

Hummm... I will try to turn that on. Me no computer real good... Sum tymes. July 28 I will be there.

Its an 8+ year upgrade because hiring stopped for 4 years..... Those days are over

Let me guess, been there ~3 years and know everything about the industry already?

At the current rate of 10 upgrades per month for the past year it's still an 8+ year upgrade. There are 1,253 pilots on the seniority list between the most junior FO and the most junior captain. At 10 upgrades per month that's 125 months or about 10.5 years for someone hired today to upgrade.

Sure there's hiring now and it's not as stagnant was it was in '08-'09 but unless the rate of upgrades picks up new hires are still looking at 8+ year upgrades.

I thought the last couple of upgrade classes had twenty

There's a small number of FO's who won't upgrade. Not that'll it'll make much of a difference.

I thought I heard the same.

agreed


standups as part of trips are just plain BS from CS
