Also, they keep shrinking MSP. Who knew that 5 years seniority would not be enough to hold it?!? That place was a fortress hub and they are ****ing it away like they did Western.
Duly noted, but when you only hire 200 off the street pilots in 5 years, 5 years doesn't mean anything in anf of itself.
If we ever hire again, especially sustainable 40-50+/month hiring, MSP (if kept the same size) will likely be available to junior pilots again, maybe even out of new hire training like it was the last time we hired.
