One never can tell. But yes, I spaced out on the medical form asking for hours. When I think of hours and the FAA my brain locks on to the long form breakdown.

Must not of had my coffee yet.

Ok great, but that’s not the normal unless it’s for line check/fed ride purpose.

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.

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. ;-)

The company is assuming the RTP pilots will stick around and upgrade to Captain. I predict the RTP pilots make the jump to an LCC as soon as they can. I just met an Osprey guy with 300 hours on property get hired by Frontier. I am sending apps as well.

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.

You were quoted but the explanation wasn't necessarily for you.
