In talking to some of the FOs there they say that they are hardly flying because they have too many of them. They need experienced Captains badly and are trying to upgrade those that are upgradable but there are not too many with the qualifications.
The young woman who flew support for our sim ride did a great job, but was about 24 and had only been with Copa for 2 years. She said she still had a couple more years before she could upgrade. She was from Spain.
I wouldnt look for FO hiring at Copa for at least until the first quarter of next year...
