how is the process for CQF done? I would imagine it involves extra right seat events in the sim or checkride. Also, do they have to tell you before your captain upgrade that they are dual seat qualifying you? Trying to get an idea of how the process works. Also, once you are assigned CQF, do you have to stay a CQF until you are above the 10% margin, or is that just when they can force you to be a CQF, and as soon as you are above 10% you no longer have to be a cqf?

It appears the Dash CQFs are only D8 FO's that upgrade into the D8.
So im guessing their CQF status will expire when they run out of right seat currency.
They list CQF as FO on the company website, thats how I'm making these opinions.

It actually looks like they aren't doing CQF at all in the Jet.

As such, I could bid as an FO, work as an FO, and get paid as an FO. Or, I could bid as a CA, but might be scheduled to fly FO legs/trips, in which case I would still be paid as a CA. I was also told there was no time frame for the FA training, and that it might be awhile after I finish CA sims/IOE.
