I attribute most of these to growing pains of a badly timed new program.

From the beginning United has stated it intends Aviate to be a large portion of it's new hire classes (up 70% of hires was stated once). If this can be achieved depends on your view if Aviate can reach its full stride or if you believe the program is a larger marketing pitch than actual pipeline.
