We've lowered October from 40 to 30 new hires. That could drop again. November will be 10 and as of now 0 for December. I've heard the number for January but can remember what it was so I won't post about it until I get confirmation again.

We are overstaffed and yes last years December classes were a nightmare trying to fill them. We had about half of the guys we wanted/needed. It also sounds like PBS might be influencing future numbers. No need to panic though, the sky isn't falling. Not until we furlough 125, park 7 planes and stop honoring the 4/5 day off language. Sorry, my PTSD just kicked in.
