But they could waive that requirements if desperate, and desperate they are, I guess all qualified FO just received an email from TG asking to bid for December upgrade class.

121.436 on the other hand could not be waived, as its FAA requirement for upgrade, and absolute minimum as of now.

Been here over 3 years and that email from TG was the first of its kind I've ever seen. How do we not have enough FOs wanting to upgrade? Or is it just that nobody wants ATL or DTW?

Not enough qualified folks who want ATL or DTW. Plenty of people would be more than happy to upgrade into SLC or DEN ....

I’ll take the upgrade to ATL if they’ll positive-space me for all my commutes. I wouldn’t wish the SLC-ATL commute on anyone.

Interesting. Anyone care to share the email about upgrading?

This is the email:

Good Afternoon,

As a First Officer, the opportunity to upgrade has never been better. I want to make sure you know that with your seniority and required hours (2500 total fixed wing time and 1000 hours Company flight time or equivalent) you could hold the December 18th upgrade class. And although class begins Dec. 18, there will be no training December 24-26, giving you the holiday off.

There are currently just 13 available slots for ATL and DTW, so don't delay; submit your standing bid with no after date restrictions at SkyWest Online> Operations > Crewmember > Crew Info > Domicile Vacancy (click to bid) before Monday, November 6 at 11:00 MT.

Please see Training Requirements: SP 3015, 5 for details.

Fly Safe,

Captain T.T. Gallo

Wow, never thought I'd see this day....just a few years ago it was an 8 year upgrade.
