This was the gouge on hiring from the AA thread a couple weeks ago:

  • 1 class that got seniority numbers but never started training.
  • 3 classes of CJOs who had been slated to start in April 2020.
  • Unknown number of people who interviewed/were waiting for a class date.

If you aren’t in one of these groups then you are apparently behind ~550-600 people, some of the furloughed will need new type ratings themselves since the equipment they once flew is now retired.
