Maybe someone that is involved with training can answer your question. Rank and file folks don't get any of that info. All we get is Kool-Aid cheering rah rah we are hiring a ton of pilots!! During the pay package, we were told we didn't need the $30 because we were already hiring a ton of people and there was no shortage. I don't think we will see anything above $30 until someone else out there does it, or we can't fill classes.

Base only has about 50 pilots on the RJ, but that is more than we had at the beginning of the year with RJ and EMB combined. Not sure what the trips are like (majority 4 days like every other base?) but 2/15 hire is the plug.
