And from 7/6/2017, the jump was in the precedent year for scope.

International capacity jumps 17% at Aeromexico

• Aeromexico (OTCPK:GRPAF) announces revenue per kilometers increased 14.2% to 3.400B in June. International RPKs were up 17.0%, while domestic RPKs increased 8.5%.
• Capacity increased 14.6% during the month to 4.119B available seat kilometers.
• Passenger traffic was up 6.3% to 1.764M.
• June load factor -30 bps to 82.5%.
• YTD load factor +220 bps to 80.1%.

This has nothing to do with the topic. Aeromexico can have growth while their share of JV flying shrinks and vice versa.

Our subsidiary grew 14% in a year that would set the balance for a scope comparison. That is not an accident. When has any airline not just Delta grown at that rate? The growth was in excess of demand and their IAs factor dropped considerably.

In the early 2000 era AeroMexico averaged 60 aircraft in their fleet and 20 in a defunct subsidiary. Mexicana was the dominent airline. 15 years later they have 74 aircraft and Mexicana is gone. If American and United went away in 2010 how many aircraft do you think Delta would have today? 14% international growth is 3 airframes for AeroMexico.

The business is measured by financials not airframes. Do you think Delta didn’t have anything to do with increased capacity in the scope precedent setting year? Take a look at AM’s investor information from the last few years. Delta runs that show.

Isn’t it great it’s allowed us to add flights to Mexico and feed a bunch more passengers into our domestic system allowing us to upguage and add additional flights! The ability to feed flights at both ends is what makes those additional transborder flights viable.

Ah, now I see your point. I think it's a little conspiracy theory-esque and pilot centric, but MAYBE you're right.

What was our transborder growth in the same time period?

Training vs Conversion
 
So ...

1) Your projected training month is JAN, and

2) Your conversion month if MAR.

This means you can't be scheduled to finish sim training prior to FEB 16 -- otherwise you'd have to convert in FEB.

I'm guessing training really starts in late JAN. Correct?

Yes, but that date is a moving target until you are in class. My FEB training for a MAR conversion (2016 MOAB) was finally put on my schedule in MAY, then JUN and actually happened in JUL/AUG.
