We have all seen hiring plans paused or just forgotten. December 2019 we had 237 mainline aircraft. With the last remaining 900 classics gone we have 246 or 248 present day. 6 more MAX 8s coming in 2026. Then we are waiting on the 10.
There will be a trickle of hiring and upgrades for attrition until the MAX 10 certification. Unless one is extremely well connected: McChord Mafia etc and well qualified I would not hold my breath for a call until Boeing announces the anti ice fix or the cancellation of the MAX 7&10.
So you think the rumored competitive times are really for mil heavy pilots? That could be I guess.
