Yes, but the carrot being dangled is the mainline seniority number. Its like someone else said in one of the threads about Colgan's pay. They said Colgan used to preach 3,2,1 to new hires. 3 years, 2 types, and 1,000 tpic. People overlook the low pay for the rapid upgrade, and chance to move to the majors. This is that same type of incentive, only better.
