My friend is a new hire and quoted 1000 pilots a year from 2017-2019. That is a manpower intensive hiring process.
I'd like to know how many are interviewed each year so I could figure the success rate. Even with a 75% hire rate, that's 1400 interviews to accomplish each year to get ~1000 pilots.
Good...then make more Captains. That's how this stuff works.
