This info will help some of your other regional bro's get a big picture. Places like RAH have nice shiny jets too, more deliveries coming, with much better pay but can't hire enough pilots or retain enough pilots. Something doesn't add up that a place taking delivery of the same type of jets but with substandard pay is able to hire while the rest can't. Something just doesn't add up.

Do they run one class a month, or two? Filling classes of 20-30 is vastly different if it's a single class each month, or two classes each month. What are the attrition rates? If they're hiring 30 but losing 35 it makes a difference.

Attrition/etc.
Attrition numbers are fact. The classes are undoubtedly fueled by growth. If you've got the time to UPG, it's a likely within a couple years. Unfortunately that's the pay band-aid until you get on to something else or people stop showing up and the contract gets fixed. No big surprise.

What's the breakdown of the backgrounds of people getting hired? Mostly flight instructors, other regionals, 135, etc. ?

It used to be they would hire anyone that could "fog a mirror", now they've made the hiring process even easier for those that couldn't pass that test...
