That's intense. Four junior man calls on vacation!!! Can't really feel bad for the company, because they knew for a while it will get to this point, and they decided to drag their feet until the last minute to start upgrading and hiring. Now they delaying guys taking early retirements until who knows when because of the lack of pilots. The latest rumor concerning upgrade is, they will run a class each month until september. Then you will have other captains between now and september moving on to other flying opportunities, so my guess is they will upgrade for the rest of the year, unless we have another recession.
