In the next 60 months: A quick look at the F9 seniority list shows 47 retirements (36 which are active). 100 new planes to be delivered with about 57 planes now online. Multiple sources have told me that we lose about 50-60 pilots per year. We have about 950 active pilots on the seniority list. So basically, we will be close to tripling in size.

That info alone looks promising for continued 2-3 year upgrades.

Is F9 perfect? What carrier is? Things here are looking great and I feel the long term business plan at F9 is better than any carrier in the nation which means stability and growth.
