Word down here is that ALL remaining 2,000 furloughees will be offered recall by this time next year. Acceptence rates vary but up to 700 are actually expected to return. Add in the extra pilots from the FTDT, the age 65 retirements soon to hit huge, and the Sup W remedy has given just about every Eagle Captain a seat at the big table. Which all means that there will likely be 1500+ new Eagle captains in the next few years.
AA is putting on extra schoolhouse guys, Eagle has added theirs as well, and word is they even posted for 3 more Captains to help in hiring. Get in now, while you can.
