You really need to go outside man, it's just not that serious.
Upgrades for my base are at 10 years + per the last bid. Upgrades will get even more senior after 2026-06 when downgrades are processed and junior pilots are no longer captains.
We hired 40 in 2025 per the list provided by the membership committee. Where are you getting 58? Are you projecting into 2026? As those classes have not yet started.
As per the all pilot call classes will stop in February. Did you listen to the call? Or just denying this was said?
