This is going to be an interesting year. We should be able to staff the remaining new aircraft deliveries with the people on property/in the pipeline, but even the tiniest uptick in attrition at any point this year is going to drive upgrade to the street.
This vacancy clearly shows that we're past the tipping point--upgrade time has gone well below the time it takes a fresh AllATPs/Riddle grad to accrue their 1,000 hours. I hope they have that street Captain syllabus ready!!!
