You have almost no control over (other than not engaging in the hysterics) most of this anyway, so tuning it out isn't necessarily a bad idea for most.

When is Elon's Mars shuttle leaving, asking for a friend.

As long as we don't cross the streams, we should be safe from total protonic reversal. Btw, does anyone have total protonic reversal on their bingo card for 2026? Just asking.

to be fair, Y2K was a nothing burger because a lot of people put in a lot of work to fix the code before the systems crashed. A coordinated effort that actually paid off.
Was it a bunch of airline pilots who did that work? |

Is this inside information, or just a guess?

edit: 10000 less than April. Which might be much less than originally planned for May since they were anticipating growth. Haven’t done a thorough look at YoY yet but it looks like about 6000 fewer hours on the 73 from last year and still an increase on the 320 from last May. |

so far cutting about 10,000 hours from the NB fleets system wide (which is less than it sounds) for May. But I don’t know about WB yet.

They told most sim instructors will be in department this Summer for what it's worth.

Weird, a recent DCLC course was told we are pulling 757's out of the desert to meet increased summer block hours.

Heard the same from my sources. Much to do about the MAX 10 and 321 NEO delivery delays. |

Can you put some more perspective? How many hours roughly do the NB fleets fly in a month on avg?

So they upped the TLV for this year to cut back flying? Doesn't square up.
Heard the same from my sources. Much to do about the MAX 10 and 321 NEO delivery delays. This is a change in the last week or so. Very recent. And as I'm sure is engraved somewhere on the floor on the 4th floor "Subject to Change" The Network planning info still show a small net increase in block hours month to month but those can lag behind actual as they update them less frequently. There will be more changes between now and publish, but just a FYI as things are coming together, it will probably be a little anti-climactic. Shouldn't be a huge increase as we head into summer and it won't be a huge 5% across the board drawdown like UAL. But we will see. We'll see what happens. Interesting times. |

Without looking, I think the 320 had something like 245000 credit hours in April.
TLV's are rolling 12 month averages, they are actively fighting the TLV limit and had to make small cuts on the 73 last month to stay under the TLV. Most of the TLV's are actually fairly safe from getting busted. They are "historically low" according to the company :-/ This is a change in the last week or so. Very recent.

I hope we either cut back hours on the 737 or hire/upgrade way more. We're so short staffed it's brutal! Reroutes and GS/QS all over the place! Good money though I guess...

You're looking at projections, it's been discussed here before, the numbers you saw for april and may are highly subject to change from the original questimate, that changes all the time (usually upwards). I would never say those are absolutes. Ever. |
