Is there a way to pull up historic RSR reports? I've deleted them.

I don't think the sky is falling but I do believe the months of having 14 days off are gone (in the regionals anyway). I think if the attrition rate continues we are going to have difficult time sustaining the current number of pilots on the roster, referral bonus or not.

I would imagine that over the next several months we will see AA/DAL/UAL management put some generous offers out to their pilots for a further relaxation of scope. I hope the mainline guys do not relent. I would also expect the retirement age to be increased to age 67; I don't believe it requires congressional approval to change. Two additional years is a bandaid, but it would provide the RAA with two years of lobbying time to get the ATP "adjusted".

I'm using the math (Total Flight Hours / Total Pilots) as a rough estimate. There has to be enough pilots on the roster to cover the contracted hours. I'm just trying to figure out what that magic number is going to be this year.

I think the number is about 2,750 pilots required to sustain operations at current level. Add a 10% buffer = 3025 pilots.

You are correct. The sky is not falling.....yet.
