It was Isom and JCG at yesterday's Crew News in DFW. It's on Jetnet.

EMB - thanks!

Isom said 750. New guidance updated from two weeks ago. This is really good news for the OTS guys (details below).

He also said "about 500/year after 2016". I'm guessing that will be higher. In 2017 retires exceed 500 and climb to 800+ in 2020.

Doing math with the f/t agreements -

hiring total monthly OTS (*) OTS annual OTS %

500 42 8 96 19
600 50 12 144 24
750 62 19 228 30

* - Envoy gets 50% of monthly slots. Envoy can cap at 30/month. AA can always exceed minimum w/AE, PSA, PDT approval.

I giggled at the hotel discussion. I can't quite figure out if it's a Braniff-type situation where the middle minions kept the bad news from Harding Lawrence for years or if it's just blowing sunshine.

Isom mentioned it during the discussion about updating/adding sim bays. Don't know what Doug said at the end, didn't watch that part yet. Yesterday's Crew News.
