He said the training dept has been told to spin-up for training new hires for the next several years.
Just a rumor, I know. But a good rumor.
Best of luck to those applying and hope you get good news soon.
Yeah...if everything stays the same, sure enough. The problem is, nothing stays the same. The only thing constant is...Change!
We could be right around the corner from the next 9-11, or Global Economic Meltdown, or Merger, or, or, or...
So, while I hope everything stays the same, and Delta continues to make $2.6 Billion a year, forever, and they do hire 8,000 pilots in the next 10 years, if we just look back in history, we'll see -nothing- stays the same for more than about 5 years.
Good luck gentlemen, we're all counting on you!
