Spoke to Jim Graham, 125 a month is for the first 5 months, grand total of 1350 pilots. According to Jim, Ed approved 1350 without hesitation, sounds like its going to be a big year for hiring.

1350 next year is what was put out at a recent velvet. Plus another 250 the rest of this year.

United, American, and Southwest have well over 100 737 Max’s currently grounded. What happens when all of these jets are up flying again in a couple months?

Add that EB thinks we will retain much of the market share we picked up (business travelers) while they were constantly rescheduling people after they had purchased tickets.

I will wait and see how much more scratch is (or isn’t) in the Feb 14 PS basket.
