So it’s kinda built to have a revolving door of pilots.
I think Newbie is on track but I wouldn't weigh in on specific numbers. Of course AMF doesn't want to be saddled with an inflated payroll when the talent shortage finally ends - you'd think that well-publicized bonuses could be a recruitment and retention tool for the near term. Perhaps peak-to-peak and at even-year anniversaries? I'm sure they're happy to have some attrition but they have got to meet their contracts meanwhile...
