Setting aside the fact that two a month IS 24 a year, a not altogether tiny number for a group that routinely has an attrition of 240 a year, I would remind you that our current pilot group is - what 675 or so?

With current attrition, that is a COMPLETE TURNOVER of personnel every 675/240 years, basically two years and ten months. That's two years and ten months from now our junior FO, assuming he or she hasn't already gone somewhere else, can flow to F9.

That doesn't strike me as either particularly distant or tiny.

And I remind everyone that retirements at the legacies are increasing for the next 4-5 years.
