My grapevine said 13.

Shoot, if we take the average that's almost at the target for each class!

What's the upgrade time now at TSA for someone who has close to 1000 121 hours? is DEN a senior base?

A yearish. Sort of. Den should grow and lots of people are shifting around bases.

So TSA has 13 more planes coming?

I am considering this place for the fast upgrade since I have plenty of 121 time already. If upgrades are currently running 1 year, in 2016 i'm thinking upgrade will come much sooner.

Seems the contract is ok, the only downside people gripe about is the fact they are 50 seat jet only. For me this is no problem but if I was to spend a length of time here when oil costs go up the fleet is at higher risk of being parked. So I can see there is only 1 disadvantage.

Any thought on this? where are the 13 jets coming from?

thanks

I wouldn't worry about it being a 50 seat operator. Compass and GoJet are also owned by TSH. With the current shortage of new hires across the industry, if things got bad enough they could park the least lucrative contracts and merge airlines.
