There are 26 in class right now. Another 20 to 30 coming in august. I am all about discouraging people from coming here, but stick to the truth please. 500 in 18 moths is 28 a month, as someone else pointed out.
Its closer to what CG is saying but pattern is somewhat correct as well. I'd assume probably only an average of 1 washout per class. There are a total of 12 retirements next year. Most of them in August, so there is another 1 per month. Then, attrition, IF we don't have a contract I absolutely think it will increase but thats only if other airlines will pick up our guys. I would only assume 1-2 per month as average attrition and if we are lucky it will be higher.

So that brings the 28 a month to about 31-32. Either way still is going to become increasingly difficult as time moves on, UNTIL we have a contract, then it'll be easy.
