I'm pretty sure things are moving along a little bit faster on the XJT side, not sure though
just wondering... how in the world can we get 700 pilots through in a year? Unless they are thinking of other training sites. I was assuming hiring would continue throughout the year with the announcement of hiring more check pilots. Didnt think it would be 700 more new hires though. Damn!
