It is talked about on here that time from an S/O to F/O on the 320 can be as little as 2 years. How about from S/O to F/O on the 777? Is that a similar prospect or is the long haul job seen as being the most preferred option? With a lot of hiring going on now, there must be a point where the new joining people are effectively the last of a big bunch and will stay as an S/O a lot longer than those that get in at the start of the rush.
I would be interested also. Anybody have any idea on roughly how long to an FO position on a widebody with this projected movement coming up?
