It’s more than 100, a lot more.

4 classes a month, 2 CRJ 60-80 per class, 2 ERJ 60-80 per class. I’ve heard numbers as high as 320 a month, I’d bet it’s closer to 250. OO’s CEO (CC) said class’s filled until March during the earnings call, and that was weeks ago.

They want 7,000 pilots by mid 2022 AFTER attrition. The Seniority List is currently at 5,400 so you do the math.

That being said, just like anything. It’s supply and demand. If you aren’t getting the people you need to do a job, you need to make it more appealing to do so.

Wrong about the good choice of OT. Training center has to bid out of base. So the most junior captains first crack.

Maybe they bid out if base and junior pilots get first crack, but l stand by my statement that training center guys still manage to pick up plenty of juicy OT.

If they're getting plenty of 'juicy OT' then that means everyone in base passed on it. Not saying it doesn't happen but they way you put it made it sound like they were 'sucking up' the good OT so others couldn't get it.

IDK HOW they are getting it, but I do know they are getting it. Maybe by virtue of their schedule they are able to pick stuff up that are full trips?
