Data point on the April 21st class:
The class size is 38, which is the largest class yet. Bases that were offered were: DFW (21), MIA (10), ORD (5), and PHX (2). Of the 38, 10 were cadets and the rest were OTS hires from May and June orientations from last year.
Management gave strong indications that hiring and classes will continue despite the hit on the industry. Envoy is getting 12 (maybe) new airplanes this year and more next year. As AA has rolled back summer routes and envoy is taking over their routes (smaller airplanes for smaller demand). They said they hope to still hire 600 pilots but aren't sure if they'll hit that number. Our class puts them just over the 200 hire mark.
