The number of airplanes coming on property are greater than those leaving. That is with no plan on which plane will replace the "8" in 5 or 6 years. Expect to see similar numbers next year as this year. The "we are short 300 pilots right now" seems to be a common theme. There will be a lot of ANC MD and 747-400 hiring in the next 18 months.

Off topic, but, the 767s on order are planned to do what kind of flying? Mostly domestic? Is that what most of the current 767s are doing?

I believe they are ER models that will be doing pond jumping. The A300 is slowly but surely leaving Europe....so we are told.

unfortunately 0%, there are some requirements they will not budge on. Have a bud in the same boat as you. No 4 year degree no chance.

Wow! Even though there are some on property, including mgmt pilots, without the 4year degree?

There are probably some people on property that didn't have 1000 PIC when they got hired either. Was there not a time when 1000 PIC wasn't a requirement?
