Latest seniority list had about 510 non-flow pilots on it through March. We should be hiring up to 650, so about 140 to go. I would say close to 10 every week through June, at a minimum, and then 5 a week until we reach 650. Add 1-2/weekly to the hiring numbers to account for additional attrition which has been steadily increasing. A pilot hired April 1 should settle at 75% by the end of the fall after the last AA birds arrive and likely higher due to other attrition. Subtract 5% from that every month after, that it takes you to start.

Those with 1000 hours will upgrade almost immediately, while those with 0 121 time are looking at 2-3 year upgrades at a minimum, possibly longer. Unless something changes of course.

The classes are no longer 10. Looking at last three, it averaged 5-6 per class.

How do they pair you up with a sim buddy if a class has odd numbers?

The single person will have seat support, usual a captain from the training center or maybe a reserve captain.

Is this a good or bad thing?

I would say having a person in your left seat already qualified in it, will probably help you than another new hire. Plus you get to cut the event down by half since you won't have to switch.

Yea, wait until the next vacancy shows upgrades going to the street... You'll see 10/class again.
