We lost 28 last month, and I believe that I moved up 14 spots.
The average new hire in 2014 was an 8 year FO previously. Those pilots are leaving in droves right now.
Thats exactly my point. In just two years, you have gone from every pilot leaving each month being senior to you, down to now half of them senior to you.
Continue that trend forward another two years. Now you're at 7. And that is assuming that it's a linear trend. As pilots approach flowing, they tend to stay put. You quickly get to a point where the only attrition senior to you are the flow throughs.
