If PSA is able to get the additional 900's, actually accepts the additional 700's, and opens another good and commutable base, then it might actually hit 2014 levels again.
In other news, Delta seems to be picking up quite a few pilots lately. I know of 2 of my friends that were just offered class dates and will be leaving this year. I would be surprised if attrition doesn't hit 20+ a month by the end of the year.
If the person is moving to a better situation, is it still considered "lateral"?
If you are going to PSA, and are getting more money, being entered into the flow, having better career stability, being able to upgrade sooner, getting better schedule flexibility with the SAP, etc... is it really considered "lateral"?
