ALSO, it may be a single turn for Dmaxvelo18 but that turn may be a part of a four day for the LCA so when training is looking for a four day to give to a student, there goes Dmaxvelo18's turn.
That said, I don't look at it as unfortunate. Getting paid to not work is great. ;-)

Ending because the program served its purpose. It was a stop gap while we waited for all the new hires to get hours so they could upgrade. The company now feels it has enough Captains or soon to be Captains ready to go. Makes more sense to just upgrade from within rather than pay the DEC's.

Most of them were for a line check/fed ride (some were for captains upgrades that just needed another hour or two to hit 50). But your post made it sound like it's rare. It's less likely than losing a full trip but it's not rare. I had one trip a couple months ago where I lost three separate turns in one trip.

Yeah. SA is also a recruiter so remember he is going to blow a bunch of sunshine and baloney at you about how awesome Envoy is and their "industry leading flow."

Osprey pilots are not RTP. They get the get all their FW ratings and most of the majors consider Osprey as “worthy” time. As far as I know, none of the majors count RW in even total time, so someone that came through the RTP may be a “military pilot” but not regarded the same as even an Osprey pilot. Their time for a major starts with their 250 hours of 172 time.
