I just assumed he was bribing the AME until he could secure LTD payments.

A couple of folks mentioned that being Denver based "is career suicide." Why is that? Is it the lack of equipment options, seniority, or something else? Thanks for sharing.

It is super senior in both seats of both aircraft. Very little movement with most living in base and not interested is chasing other aircraft and seats. Also, base is not that big with not much growth currently.

I have been here over 10.5 years, can hold SFO Capt on 737, 320 and am a line holder in SFO on both 777 and 787, but cant crack 55% as FO on 737.

Yeah but they will get you a couple 3 day and a couple 4 day trips with a ~77 hour line! So you got that going for you!

What a difference five years makes. Eh?

Currently it would be as soon as you were qualified and off probation. After the new contract things might change a bit.
