current number of airplanes after Q200 transitioned out= 69
Current number of CRJ's to disappear= 21
Total airplanes= 48
Basicly 1/3 0r 220 pilots need to find a home. And where to the cut from? Not the top but the bottom.
We had our largest year of attrition last year with the age 60 rule in place and many majors hiring how many left? I believe it was around 68.
DO the simple math. If they dont get more airplanes 8 year captains will be FO's again. Ive flown with 3 8+ years captains on this trip already and they are all sweating it.
