You GOT 600 F/O's NEXT year ?

What are YOU smoking and did you buy it from Mason ?

I do remember a couple of years ago (perhaps 3), Envoy advertised for 600 and got about 105-110 last I heard and that was before the more current crisis regarding lack of new entry-level regional pilots. Fact is, unless Envoy can poach other carriers of their pilots, they have little hope of getting the required 40 pilots/month to feed the Envoy flow/upgrade gerbil wheel Mason trumpets here.

That is my only sin; Simply questioning the claims of certainty OTHERS make here regarding what an Envoy new-hire of today can count on to both upgrade at Envoy let alone flow to AA through Envoy.
