Current 330 FOs that are stuck until the fleet is gone, will not get to the 380 until when, 2018? Then have to do 2500hrs on the 380 before becoming eligible for a command on it, so 2022ish?
The new joiners on the 380 need three years in the company and 2500hrs on the 380, so mid 2018/2019?
Who knows.
There were over 600 FOs hired in 2010. The majority of them on the 777. There are fewer than 80 upgrades on the 777 this year. So I would suggest that any Fo on the Boeing or mini bus is in for a long wait. And a new joiner on the 380 must be very close to the same situation.
The quick commands ended some time ago.
