(Waiting for you to tell me how many more you flow a month - which is true, but no one knows how long any of that will continue.
Does a new hire today get hired in 2007 or 2016? In other words, new hires should look at what the flow through projection is for someone hired today, not years ago during the worst decade in the industry.
The pilots coming to Envoy are smart enough to understand that concept. Are you?
As far as Envoy's flow through numbers, it's 30 EVERY MONTH, and we do know exactly how long that lasts.
Envoy's flow through projection of 5.5 years is based only on the minimum meterable flow per month. They use 0 pilots per month for attrition to other airlines, unlike PSA who uses 20-25 per month, or about 2% of their pilot group every month. That would be like Envoy saying, ya we have 30 a month flowing but we have 37 more a month going to other airlines. Using the same attrition percentage to other airlines that PSA uses would drop Envoy's flow through projection to 28 months.
PSA pilots are not more desirable to legacy carriers. Using other airline attrition is dishonest at best and that is why Envoy doesn't use it.
