Elvis, I thought you'd left the building
DECs, well did you wear a blue shirt in a previous job or do you have C&T approval on the 'Bus ? if not, get in line. Commands currently around high 200s on the seniority list with the list going to around 470 odd.
Lots of A/C coming and lots of pilots that don't meet upgrade criteria, so maybe only 18 mths ?? to command.
Other thing, you can request CHC at your interview and end up in AD, ML, SY, etc etc, will depend on where you are needed at the time, having said that it doesn't seem to be too hard to get transferred once you are in.
Good luck with the Phsyc test, interview, planning exercise and sim !
Cheers
