I think that 14 is the max right now. I talked to one of the students in the last class, and that is what they told him. He had very good things to say about the class, which was great to hear. I have heard rumors about a second class being offered if needed, with 1 being in CLT and the other in CVG. Not sure how true that is.
We supposedly are starting to get a large number of applications from other regionals that are starting to shrink - namely AWAC, ExpressJet, and Mesa. If that is true, it is doubtful that we will need more than 14 ATP/CTP in each class. Remember in 2014, we were hiring classes of 30+ every 2 weeks, but about half of the new hires came from other regionals.
