If we start from Jan. 1, 2014, = 709.5 pilots per year, through 31Dec17, depending on the 739/757 swap/add.
Slightly more than the rumored 600/yr.
Nice. Let's hope he's right.
You know, we keep hearing numbers like this, but the clock is ticking and we have interviews/poolies from autumn when they first began saying they've been told late summer or later class dates. I'm not seeing how we're going to ramp up to those numbers if we keep the front end of the wave as small as its been.
