I've got a few friends coming up through the CFI pipeline who would like to avoid the exercise in masochism that most regional jobs provide, and are interested in working for Expressjet. The big question they have that I haven't found a real answer for is what pilots think the upgrade situation is going to be in the future. I'm glad the branded flying is working out so far, so it doesn't seem that there's likely to be a slide into 5+ year territory, as some people had feared. I've done a search on the subject and haven't been able to find any intelligent discourse in recent history. Any thoughts? Shorter, longer, or continuing to hover around the 2-year mark?
Oh, and I know this is wishful thinking on my part, but I hope we can avoid the usual river of flame that occurs whenever someone brings up the concept of quick upgrades. These guys are concerned with QOL, which is why they're more interested in XJT than joining the unwashed masses at GLA, Mesa or Pinnacle.
