We have an increase in block hours in the fall and they loose about 1.5 pilots a month to attrition right now. That is what management told me in our recurrent training briefing the other day. Take that for what it is worth. Also we have hired ten more part time contract sim instuctors. They plan to hire about twelve pilots a month for the next couple of months i.e. sept and oct not including what they have hired in August. I know the training building will be busy and is scheduled out to December as of right now with new hires and upgrades that I discussed. This is all subject to change but the 12 upgrades should make many of our egar F.O.s happy.

Happy Flying,
