Lots of questions everyone needs to be thinking about.

I think I just heard the entire group of training schedulers have a collective stroke.
Sims and IOE for 250-300 new hires a month!?!

When I was at TK they said 200 is our max, unless something has changed. Maybe it’s because the 777 is coming into play with the fix the real capacity is higher? There was a graph somewhere on ft showing capacity and how many people waiting

I love that argument. IAH residents pay 2-3x what I do in state income and property taxes combined.

A whole lot of people held their nose and “complied” the first time. Far more people can see through the BS for what it is now. Friendly reminder, there is no FDA approved vax, nor booster.

Depends on your stage in life and choices. Lot easier to control what you buy and where you live than what you earn. DINK ... texas make a lot of sense. 30yo new hire with 3 kids TX might not be as good an option.

I’d say the state of WB bids has the potential to open things up. Whether being offered directly to new hires or just bid into during indoc, any new pilots going straight to WB training opens up another new hire NB training slot & changes the overall calculus on capacity. If there’s any truth to 65/week (not saying there is), I’d expect the long anticipated (& salivated over) WB bids in indoc classes to follow.
