Here are the numbers from Aug to Jan...

Aug-Sep - 2 senior/1 junior

Sep-Oct - 0 senior/1 junior

Oct-Nov - 2 senior/5 junior

Nov-Dec - 3 senior/4 junior



Several of the last few were significant training issues, not the pilot's decision. If you want to say 11 out of over 100 new hires is significant attrition, ok. Not to mention, that doesn't even count the fact that some of those were guys that have been here for a couple of years moving on. I just don't think those numbers would drive hiring from attrition.



But that's just my opinion. Everyone has one they say!
