Well EPR SET..thats an endless discussion of course But let me raise 3 remarks:

-1/knowning that today in QR it takes easily 5..6 years to become a CPT there is plenty of time to be transfered on long haul fleet in between before coming back on the short haul fleet as a captain or even being upgraded on the long a haul as QR upgrades people from right to left on 330&777

-2/A SENIOR f/O who is stuck&blocked on 320 (or by passed by junior guy going straight on 330) for 5.. 6 years will be most probably upgraded on... 320.

-3/At the same time the lucky one(F/O) who join straight the company on 330 today will most probably be upgraded on the 330 or 777 or 350 or 787 in the next 5..6 years.
( imagine the difference just in term of salary!).
