That's because it is. Let's say there are 800 pilots now, 20% would be another 160 which is another 6-8 classes. I think he just got carried away.
Well, read my statement one more time ... 20% up on the
FO side.
And just for clarifications: Sims are being pushed back due to Captain upgrades and 20+ new hire classes every 3 weeks. My sim will be in Canada, 4 weeks from now. So there you go, at least 80 souls added from my hire date.
I rather have a line within a couple of weeks/month out of IOE then sitting around while on reserve for a couple of month/years at most other regionals.
Yeah, 20% up means moving up te list, not how many people you have below.
Seniority is gained the other way around, if you move up means people above you left. I don't think that 80 above you are leaving.
