Right now the guys upgrading have 3 1/2 to 4 yrs in the right seat.
It would only be guessing as to how long it would be for someone joining now. Remember , there are a lot of younger pilots at WestJet so retirements won't help a lot especially considering that WestJet lets it's pilots fly to 65.
The big wild card for the future is expansion. Will WestJet get significantly bigger? Will WestJet fly internationally? I think the answer to both questions is yes. The question you have to ask yourself is when?
