I’m not doubting that management said that. What I’m doubting is it’s even possible. They have supply side constraints right now in Dallas. They cannot produce enough pilots from the supply pipeline to keep up with the demand they need. If you look at putting through 1K upgrades and 1K new hires and requalifications along with 9K recurrence. (Rough numbers) that’s roughly what 116K work days through training a year company wide. Or around 300 a day if run at 365 days or 13 an hour. Possible but based on historical data I doubt it. If they pull it off someone deserves a bonus, if they fail someone deserves to be fired.
BTW the “work day” is a widget, it has absolutely no quantification other than for comparison purposes over time.
