However, with them taking 144 pilots in 2015 and 180 in 2016, unless you are a very senior FO you will likely spend close to half a decade at 9E waiting to flow. (assuming you even pass the SSP). Especially with the re-interviews of the previously failed CA's mixed in, who will have priority if they pass round 2.
If these numbers are correct, that would mean nearly all pilots hired at Delta in 2015 would be from 9E.

According to this, if accurate, Delta is expected to have 169 pilots retire in 2015.
