"I think that there are MANY extraordinary pilots who dont follow this route"

There may be but I'd bet the number that do it the traditional way is exponentally larger. But hey, go to RAA and let us know how it works out.

You talk about seniority numbers in your last year? That only works if you stay with the same airline from 600 total to retirement. What are the odds of that? When you leave your first job for your second job, you start over.

There are too many variables over the course of a career to give the "get on quick for the seniority" agrument to hold water.
