I live in Atlanta, was getting my medical and this came from a Delta pilot. Specifically he stated that around 30% of classes are empty and that a lot of pilots were leaving for FedEx due to their pension.
The current take rate I heard on offers is down slightly but still the highest in the industry. Classes are full with no empty seats. In fact the pool time to start is several months.
