You guys keep comparing 1000/1500 hires at Delta as more than Fedex. FedEx is a 4300 pilot seniority list versus 12K pilots at Delta. Proportionally it's identical what's happening with the hiring. The Vietman era guys are timing out...everywhere. The idea that Delta is hiring more is so misleading and its plastered all over this forum.

All these Delta dudes admit that they fly red eyes on a regular basis. PBS. Less pay per day on an hourly basis. No pension. Yes, I'm biased but happy with my choice. And I don't spend an entire work week a month airborne. Not even close.
