I honestly had NO IDEA that there were so few regionals now -- and that "INC" has the lion's share of pilots.

Dear SAPA,

We've got some leverage.

Thanks for the info.

These are all APC numbers from the profiles. If you guys have better numbers please let me know and we'll get this chart tightened up.

I had no idea Air Whisky and Mesa were so close in size. I always imagined Mesa as a much larger airline.

Mesa had 1800+ pilots before the EMB-145's started getting parked around '09.

SkyWest has double the amount of aircraft as Republic (170 vs 352). So either Republic is overstocked with pilots, SkyWest is severly understocked, or something in the middle. Either way there is something fishy there.

APC profile numbers has Republic at 230 aircraft.

We need to update everything.

Nice job on the chart.

It would be cool to see total number of planes and get an idea of how thick or thin they are crewed.

great job
