Take that for what it's worth before you bid to the ER in this AE, especially if you are junior.
So the Company deliberately awarded pilots positions on the previous AE that won't even go to training until after summer, and now the current AE is going to award even more 7ER slots that wouldn't train until late fall?

They are going to waste usable line pilots that they really NEED on the narrowbody fleet now just to fill seats that they will empty before they even get online to generate revenue?

So are you saying the same Company that delayed hiring just to squeeze an extra million out of 2103 Q1 profit is going to waste hundreds of thousands (maybe a million?) just to displace?

That math doesn't work.
