I sat in recurrent ground school this week and had a Q&A session with the new vp fleet, John A. Your friend is either lying to you or being lied to or both. Yes we're taking boeings but no more this year and we're getting another 4 380's. We will be growing but not until next year. We're at 2400 pilots. Seriously, do you think in 2 years we will double in size? Say 60 widebodies a year for two years? Another 2000 pilots? Can your friend add? Is this even plausable at any airline?

My God, Man.
