I understand the pressure on PDT pilots right now. That pay scale is toooo low though.
I don' think many new hires will fall for that flowthrough though. Let's say you're the first one hired. At 3 per month it will still take many many years to flow. Even considering not everyone will flow as a lot will go to other airlines.
There will always be a few though. Those outstation bases will probably close.
I think the best we can hope for here at Envoy is that they won't get the hiring numbers they hope to.
They obviously want the airline to keep running so turning down the first deal thrown at you is a gamble but I think appropriate.
