Exactly. And if (very doubtful considering average DL Newhire has around 4000 hrs) so… if you get hired. Cough up the 80k if getting on a major is that important to you.. maybe if we went back to the days of first year pay was $19.05 a hour and a wapping $25 at year 4. They wouldn’t need a contract. But the fact your getting $90hr, plus typed in a state of the art jet not a turbo prop, single occupancy hotel room, pay from day 1. Not after IOE was passed. should tell you there investing money in you to the tune of 80k. And they want to recoup there investment.. Funny how some of us waited 10 plus year. Some 15+. And there are people here that are flight instructors, put out that they have to stay more then 2 years at a regional with such certainty that they will have a Major CJO in hand..
Why would they have to “cough up 80k” if hired at Delta prior to reaching 1,600 hours flown as a Captain at SkyWest? The contract says fly 1,600 hours as Captain OR accept pilot position at Delta or United.

For a CFI starting their 121 career the path is a lot longer than 2 years from the start of Indoc to 1,600 hours turbine PIC at SkyWest?
