However, I think it’s more practical to be realistic. The good news is there’s still the 30 day extension to take the pressure off, if I can get an IOE assignment soon. The bad news is there’s over 140 pilots behind me in training and no signs that the attrition issue will resolve itself soon. The company can barely hire fast enough to replace their losses. Rumor has it they are prioritizing line check airmen training to resolve the IOE bottleneck, but there is still a wait for the FAA to get the LCAs approved.
Any update on this?
