Coincidence ?

I think not.

In any case, once the pilot group is around 1500 AA can't afford to flow at the 50% rate because they would never be able to hire enough pilots to cover that flying. They would need to hire 80 a month just to cover those pilots. A person at the bottom of a 1500 pilot seniority list will still flow in the same time frame-if not sooner-than someone at the bottom of a 3,000 pilot seniority list with 50% flow.

It's shocking how some of you are unable to put 2 and 2 together and need information spoon fed to you.
It's stunning how some fail to see that in order for this engine to run smoothly (or at all), Envoy will have to recruit sufficient pilots. Problem is, those pilots simply don't exist. It's all a house of cards, designed for a temporary goal.

But, what a parade (or is it charade ?) you promote...........it's quite spectacular.
