that’s exceptionally optimistic. Reasons

1) PSA was staffed for a growing, 6-base, 150 ship airline with substantial pilot departures. They not only needed to fly 150 airplanes but they needed 100-150 trainees in the pipeline at all times to handle attrition. Even assuming psa goes “back to normal” the new normal will not require everyone who was furloughed. We’re now a stagnant 4-base 130 ship airline.

2) management has made it clear their primary priority is work rule changes (sap to pbs) that will reduce staffing needs. PSA’s growth (and probably survival) is dependent on this reduction in future hiring needs

3) even assuming they start recalling pilots next month they would need to train 50 pilots per month to start hiring early 2022. That’s close to maximum new class velocity the past few years. Not gonna happen.

We’re not trying to stomp your dreams, but the world we all knew is gone. Make your plans based on what you see now, not what you saw a year ago.
