OK, just to ward off the trolls & flamers:
Search function has been used - and has fulfilled its purpose ;)
This thread is about the current state of affairs @ NTA
This thread is NOT :ugh: about The New Contract/Is NTA the Dark Lords Evil Minions?/NTA is not a good company to work for/The grass is greener elswhere/LIS vs. Predator, who would win?
Have an interview coming up & could do with some hard facts before encountering the NTA propaganda&sales-machine - and deciding wether leaving my present job is even worth it (financially speaking).
If joining with approx. 7000 hrs, 5000 hrs. multi-pilot command and 2000 hrs 737NG-command (and a lot of charter/VIP-ops...) - and supposing one manages to make favourable impression during LT - what would be a realistic wait for a small/medium-cabin command?
Is 6 months realistic - or does internal supply make up a sufficient percentage to make 12 months a more realistic figure?
Do people still progress from succesful LT directly to a command course, or are those days gone?
And finally, if one makes it to command, how many years have people typically been in NTA before offers of LT, TRI & TRE materialise?
Recent high-time-joiners are welcome to put their answers on a postcard :E - the trolls will pls remain in their caves := - for now, at least.
Brgds,
Empty
