Seatlocks to be released or reduced shortly.

My contract uderstanding one for one the saab seatlocks are released now. Not for the jet...yet. 450 is the bottom now for the 200 and 500 roughly for the 900. Seat locks are released one for one in lieu of hiring street captains.

 

[flap operator]

If seatlocks are relased for saab captains, then why did the 200 and 900 go so junior? I know that I have my bid set up for the jets in MSP and I am senior to both those jr 200 and 900 guys.

Will we see this award get revised 6 times too?

FO

There were only 4 or 5 pilots seatlocked as FO for jumping from Saab to CRJ FO. They would be able to get out of the seat lock to go to the Saab as captain. This does nothing to release any Saab captains from their locks to allow them to bid 200 or 900 captain. Though I have to believe that may not be very far off at this point.

There are a few hundred new hires to move through before hitting street captain in the jets.

 

[WMUSIGPI]

Most of the new hires don't have the time and/or age to upgrade yet.

Yeah, its confusing but I think new hires start Indoc on the 5th and 19th with Captains starting class a week later, so in theory they are starting new hire classes every two weeks.

Are there any requirments for crj900 capt. other than ATP mins/1500 tt. I know with the Avro it was around 4000 tt for capt. I'm surprised that the insurance companies allow a 900 capt. with only 1500 tt.

seat lock doensn't get dropped for the prop, only for the jet, besides something tells me restifo is going to play hard ball with the seatlocks

I haven't seen any mins published anywhere, so I'm working on the assumption that it's ATP mins like any other upgrade.

I really doubt it man. Most companies want betweet 2500TT to 3500 TT for the jet positions. But then again I have been surprised before. But I'm still a bit confused about something, are they actually hiring street captains for the CRJs? I know there's the seat lock issue but I thought I read somewhere that they had already hired two guys off the street for the CRJ?

Hired as CRJ sim instructors with crj capt pay, so I hear.

That's some good pay.

No street ca's on the CRJ, not in the training dept. There are ground instructors hired but they are management. They don't get to fly the line or even get a senority number for two years.

Alrighty then. Thanks for the info. There's nothing worst than assumptions or rumos. Thanks for the clarification.
