SLC chief pilot said they had not heard of any hiring beyond 300.

Or you could look at it like this:

300 new bodies
150 furlough returners
150 new hires
148 retirements between now and 31 Dec 2014

Means the seniority list will grow by 2 pilots. NSo while technically that is growth... it certainly could be turn the other direction quickly
