Anyone know what the average ages are of the two(?) new hire classes so far?
Not the furlough bypass guys, but the true 'new hires' ie. off the street and/or flows? And what's the percentage of Civ. only vs. Mil?
I'm sure it's going to change over time as they get the training dept. spooled up, both the age and the C/M%, I'm just trying to compare today's hiring with that of years gone by.

Looking at the two classes in Jan approx. 43 total, 22 of them have a retirement date of 2035 or sooner. No one under 30 in January and 9 of them 50 ish (2029 or sooner) and over. With out a calculator it looks like the January average age would fall in the 42-44 range.

Apparently those ER slots are being "pondered" to possibly be held from the new hires. They don't really want them training for Indoc , 4 different a/c , TOE, and IOE to worry about so quickly.

There used to be a "767" category which was those planes but not ocean crossing. The 7ER used to be exclusively international, but they were eventually blended into a combined category.
B= First officer
I'm not sure what the pushback is on allowing newhires to have it.. there were a lot that got it in the 07-08 cycle.

As in 767-300ER.
The ER means Extended Range.
Every category calls their plane by the largest version (73-800, A320, ER, etc) except the MD88/90 which goes respectfully by the smaller plane out of pride, humility and maybe a little fear.

That didn't stop them in 07/08 when new hires went straight to the ER in NYC.

And that is why the -88 is better than the 7ER.....
