I've only moved up 438 spots in 29 months. That's an average of only 15 per month and I'm sure there were a few months that spiked around 20-25 over that last 2 years but no higher. Even if you add in the FO's behind me I can't imagine it being more than 18 per month on average. A good friend of mine was hired in Nov., to date only has 182 pilots behind him and has only moved up 139 spots, that’s only an attrition rate of 17.3 per month and he's well over 1000 pilots behind me.

In the last 4 months alone I’ve only moved up 22 spots. That’s an average of around 5.25 at my seniority level. I’m sure that, if you add those behind me that are leaving, our current attrition rate is around 5-10 per month.
