Haven't really been privy to all the "latest and greatest" however, the opposite seems to be taking place. Here's a quote from Flight Ops head M.F.

"A New Hire class of 40 pilots will commence training this Thursday, September 12. This will be our biggest class of the year and represents back fill for the Captain upgrades scheduled for this fall."

I honestly don't know how they're doing it but I have heard they are already having a lot of issues during training and during IOE. All I can say this has gotta be expensive. Again I re-iterate before guys jump all over the "Phone Interview" only hiring. You've gotta pass sh*t !!! Nothing's shiny at any regional nor on any crap CRJ.

Anyone have info from recent Conf. calls.
