The remaining seats available are then filled with a ratio of eligible PCL SSP hires (max of 12 per month or 1/3 of remaining new hire seats, whichever is less), and then "off the street" hires.

All schedules are adjusted by slots required to place FUR BYP pilots in first classes (max 203), but likely 1/3-1/2 will return.

So say Delta runs 2 classes a month at 50 per class: total 100/mo

Jan-Feb: 200 FUR BYP

Mar-July 2014
3 FUR BYP (Mar only)
20 CPZ
9. MSA
12 PCL
56 Off the street (59 Apr-July)

Aug 2014 (maybe earlier)
9. MSA
12 PCL
79 off the street

Sept 2014-Feb 2015
12 PCL
88 off the street

GT,

Sounds like he had some issues, fair enough, but he is gone and its Fathers day - perhaps we can end this discussion or at least steer it in a more productive direction.
