There were 2012 positions.
They filled 1699 or so.
When 2000 pilots advance this causes a waterfall whether you believe it or not.
When a 777A retires one 330A replaces them. And one ER captain goes to the 330A and one 320A goes to ER captain and one 717A goes to the 320A and so on.
This AE didn't even fill the openings let alone the waterfall.
I hope you are correct Sailing and this is a non issue.
If it does become an issue I hope management doesn't think we are going to save them from having one of every fleet.
