I read to many guys wanting to be hired by British Airways, Virgin, lufthansa as Direct Entry Captains for 747 400 with the max pay with CPL and 200 hs. If you want to fly for a major with a big UNION you will have seniority and you will have to wait your turn to upgrade. Lots of more senior and equal qualified guys before you. Period. Nothing will change that.
Big boys play with big boys rules.
