DL has hired more simply because they have added more mainline capacity to the bottom end than the others. That's a process that is still continuing, although to a slower degree that will flatten out at some point obviously. There are about 2500 more positions on the list than post merger, and there is still a very large retirement wave about to hit in the coming years. Even after the wave starts to subside, it will still remain a powerful force for a very long time.

DL has brought a lot of the former RJ flying in house and brought more pilots on to cover it just like most of us hoped they would do. The other legacies seem much further behind in that regard. We need much more work on large jet scope that has the potential to add a lot more people to the list.

Trying to purchase one as my first property. I live in NJ, but am seeing that most properties in NJ/NY are expensive and some do not even cash flow. Where are you guys investing in some of the bigger properties w/ more units?

The best thing you can do is get tied in with some local real estate investors, find a few RE blogs and podcasts. Sites like biggerpockets, podcasts from Jason Hartman and books by Robert Kiyosaki are good starting places if you don't know much about real estate investing yet.

A big factor in deciding where to invest is state and local tax. Avoid places that will have you doing crazy paperwork on your time off other than signing a few things. Just my opinion.

Texas is good. Bigger properties w/ more units is a little vague, but once you start getting over $20 million you are competing with institutional money and will have a tough time cash flowing. If bigger is something larger than a 4 plex, you will find properties that cash flow in several different areas. Management of properties outside of your local area will be one of the bigger obstacles to overcome.

Memphis is the worst choice you can make in Tennessee. Knoxville or Nashville are far far better. That being said, my mom passed away a couple years ago and I still own her condo in Cordova. I'll sell it at basically break even just to gtfo of Memphis.
