Endeavor has 130 airframes 1700 pilots. Their junior CA is a July 2016 hire
I'm not sure how that math works, but it seems like everyone's upgrade is dropping quite significantly except for republics...
It has to drop. The way attrition is happening plus the growing fleet will drop it. I've been here over a year and I'm looking at around a year and a half to go based on my monthly seniority movement. Like I said. 45 people left in January who were senior to me. That's a lot. It's usually been between 20-35.
Also consider that a lot of junior people left in 2013, 2014, and early 15. So if you're looking at the junior upgrade, it's going to move faster over the next year.
