I don't think the union's going to have to do anything to stop new hires from coming in.
We are probably still at a net loss for the year. And you don't traditionally make up as much training backlog during the holidays.
As I hear it, the hiring sort of peaked with the 175 announcement but has gone back down because guess what: the information about this place is out there.
The simple fact is that this place is chaos, and there are better places to work.
Do this for me: name a regional that is hiring all the pilots they need that doesn't have a flow to a major carrier.
Maybe Skywest, but I don't think that will last.
Heck, even places with flows to LCCs aren't getting enough applicants.
