Upgrade times

[GuppyWN]

The most junior captain at WN is 6 years 2 months. Now that most of the majors are empying the furlough buckets and/or street hiring I'm curious what the junior captain is at your airline.

It's been awhile since most guys could talk about it so I was just probing for current info.

Thanks,
Gup

B6 is around 10/04 for the bus. The 190 is 03/06 I think.

But what about upgrade rates / projections? Doesn't that tell the whole story?
