If you are a Delta pilot you can read it on the crew resources April newsletter. I'm an 00 hire and always waiting for the other shoe to drop since that is how it's been for the last/lost decade, however I think that we are definitely on the way up.
Yep. It is an entire year of 50 a month above what they already announced. We had announced 50 a month to April this year and this is an additional year or 600 more than already announced. That is what all the rumors have stated so now it's official. Good news for sure. Let's hope that 10-20 year period of the training pipeline being full comes true.
