Use the hotel time to study as a class with your instructor. Indoc here is not like anything I had experienced before. Pay attention and ask questions if you dont understand something. Know the packet they gave you but be prepared for some changes when you get in. We are working on changes to many things overall do your best to just roll with it. You are in a good spot even if it comes with some challenges.

Experience and folks coming from other places will be welcomed be they XJT/UA/Anywhere else if and when hiring starts, but that could be months or years from now. A lot of our hires pre Covid had a wide array of previous experience and we benefitted from that. New eyes and skilled hands are an asset to us all. If we can in any way provide a soft landing as well, that’s a win/win in my book.

Are pilots upgrading during training? If so, when does Capt. pay begin? Completion of Capt. IOE or once awarded the Captain bid. Any idea how long RSV will be in IAH? I know some may be difficult to answer since hiring has just started and will continue for the foreseeable future. Thank you for the information already provided. Been a while since I was at a 121 carrier and I am excited to be back in the 121 world. Fly safe.

They’re already senior to you to begin with. But if the company expands as much as has been advertised reserve shouldn’t be too long as more junior captains are brought on behind you.

would this scenario cause the street captain to downgrade?

Probably not. There is always a possibility of a displacement bid that could force some to downgrade as we move bases around. More than likely, the junior CA's would bid to just move to the junior base instead of being downgraded.

I'm almost surprised they're not doing CQF training to increase flexibility.
