Could it be less than that if it is a slow year for charter?

Whats the ballpark upgrade time at ACC?

 

[apu]

Usually as soon as you have enough time.

 

[RichardRambone]

You mean 135 mins?

 

[RichardRambone]

Or do you mean the posted mins on their website for Captain? Also, whats the typical amount of hours flown per month? I'm just trying to gouge how long it might be before an upgrade is possible.

You weren't happy with the advised upgrade times at Skyway. What's the dang hurry??? Don't want to be an F/O for more than a month???

No hurry just researching and trying to not take a pay cut while still advancing in this industry. I guess Im a jacka$$ for wanted tomake the best outta my situation jerk.

So, if your profile is correct and you have 800 hrs, you're going to take a paycut no matter what.

You're better off waiting until 1200 hrs (yes, that means being PATIENT - truly a novel concept) and getting a 135 job when you meet the requirements.

You're a long way from being a CA of any 135/121 airplane.

You're not completely right but Im not gonna get in a pissing match with you. There are jobs out there that pay more than what I make but if I can combine a step up in my career with higher pay then good for me. Just trying to research and see if I could take a cut and F/O it for awhile and then get a relatively quick upgrade and make a decent check then I wouldn't mind taking a cut for awhile. Or should I just keep on pushin and hit those 1200 hours and see what happens. Just researching, not flamebaiting.

All that other stuff about pay cuts and everything aside, I didn't think it was such an unreasonable question. My understanding is that the upgrade time can be pretty quick (1200) for F/O's who've been with the company for a while, depending on the needs of the company, of course. I agree with T-Gates though - plan for the worst case.

I'd like to get hired straight into the left seat myself. I don't mind exercising a little patience, I just want to hurry up and get it over with!
