No question in that post. Just posting one of the points covered during a conversation with a TSA pilot/recruiter after inquiring into the CQFO program.
But I've got a few ??? for you now though😎
How many planes are currently on property?
What is the planned expansion?
Is there a published aircraft delivery schedule?
Trying to read a crystal ball, on projecting how long a military guy with zero 121 time, but exceeds all the other CQFO requirements, would be at FO pay.

Or 500 SIC if you flew a ME Crew aircraft in the military. Either way, the sooner you get in, the better. If you get in late, you'll be at the bottom of the list.

Right. So you can't legally be a PIC until you get 500 SIC if you flew a crew aircraft in the military. Once you're on the list, you go to the bottom of it regardless of experience. once you meet all upgrade requirements you can submit a bid to upgrade and depending on how many qualified pilots ahead of you will depend on when you can upgrade. Until then, you're an FO. Period.

You'll be on FO pay until you get 1000 SIC hours. That's an FAA requirement. Depending on when you get hired, your upgrade will be between a year or longer. The music stops next January.

Real questions, looking at the possibility of adding 121 experience to my resume, and the TSA growth plan/CQFO program looked like one of the more promising options. Thanks in advance.

What happens next January? I asked/searched for an aircraft delivery schedule...couldn't come up with one. What is special about TSA's plan to man this growth....it seems other Regional operators are having staffing issues without growth?

PSA, Mesa, and current us are not having any staffing issues.
After 1st quarter of next year, the current addition of airplanes per month (between 2-5) stops. So any new upgrades will be based on attrition of Captains to other jobs.
