CQFO - Questions
Looking at TSAs CQFO program and was wondering a few things.
1. How much left seat flying on average are they getting? 2. How much will more senior FOs upgrading affect QOL? 3. Does waiting 90-days to attend class after the first day help with getting a line once finished with IOE? I'd be based in DEN as I live here already. Thanks! |

However TSA has been binging on military rotor guys and I will be shocked if they are here very long as they will move on to other places quickly so you could move up pretty fast. It is hard to say right now because staffing is so fluid. |
Looking for updates on CQFO:

Helloing. Surely there is someone out there that can give this dog a bone.

Hey m20. Appreciate your insight. In and out as fast as I can is my goal. Thanks again.

We are much shorter on captions than FOs, and it is set to be even worse in November and December. (Lots of people put in notice within the past couple weeks, and there's more people that know leaving). Couple that with a few big FO classes being coming online, we're going to have a lot of FO reserves, and pretty much no captains are on reserve. If you are on reserve, I'm betting at least 80% of flying will be left seat. You might fly as an FO occasionally if needed, but there should be plenty of FO coverage in the coming months.
Also, they are literally running out of people to upgrade. Vast majority of FOs are still working towards 1000 121. If you take the first available upgrade you will probably upgrade soon after training (possibly sooner). |
