Double that for the next couple of months.

Will hire as fast as training throughput allows.

Delta's training program is ... how do I say ... quick. Heard quite a few are needing extra sims here and there, slowing things down a bit. No problems ... .

IMHO the training issues will be resolved quickly. Delta still has a bit of a learning curve with new hires. The system is set up around Delta pilots transitioning from one type to another. As a result Delta hasn't quite figured out the level of spoon feeding necessary like the regionals have with their training programs. This is the adult school over here and it is assumed you know quite a bit off the street.
