The number can be deceiving. 150 flow pilots will be removed from the top of the list starting April 1 through November 1, at a pace of 20 a month. 650 is their end number with non-flying pilots included. You can almost think of it as though we need to grow to 800 to account for the 150 flow pilots leaving. We probably are around 650 pilots right now (500 active) and need to hire another 150 for the flow and AA growth. After that, all hiring is for regular attrition.

To figure out where you will sit, take your current number and minus 150 for your November number. Divide that by 650 and there is your seniority % in November. 1-5 non-flow pilots will likely leave monthly, so you can probably account for that too.
