Well it will be a relative number among each fleet and base depending on current staffing. Basically though it is the end of bidding into conflict and the end of build-up reserves. Look at how many build-up lines are available. There are 11 out of 79 total lines for D9C in March which is normal from what I have seen. Granted a couple of those will become flying lines but the rest become excess people.... So 3 more flying lines 8 now unneeded lines that's right at 10% of the lines(pilots).
Also the staffing situation question was asked in recurrent Thursday and my previous post was the answer given.
