Yes...350 pilots is the baseline. At 475 PDT gets 4 flows a month, 600 pilots is 5 flows, etc...

Yeah, It's a good recruiting tool. It's also great at keeping pay low in the industry.

Now the question is...if PDT goes up to 475 pilots and then when the flows goes up, it can't get enough people and goes down below that number, does it goes down back to 3?

wonder where I heard all of that before.....

If you're not at a wholly owned; you should be. The smart ones are the 28 who were in class at Envoy this month getting in ahead of the wave.

Things that make ya go hummmmm..,,
fixed it for ya.

If they maintained their current rate it could mean ~550 to flow. 68% of 800 is 544

2.5 or less to CA/ 6 or less to flow?

Im still not buying It. There are not enough NH out there to fill so many vacancies. I hope we get to see that, but AAG would have to produce a miracle...

Something like, AA numbers or seniority for Envoy pilots. We are too damaged from Bankrupcty and PSA backstabbing.

One lesson I hoped all of you at Envoy would have learned after the March 2014 disaster was that there are always pilots. ALWAYS, one way or another.

More importantly, never underestimate a Regional pilot's propensity for making lateral moves. Republic is about to become the single biggest source of pilots for all the other Regionals in 2016. Never mind places like Commutair, Silver, and even a healthy dose from Expressjet/ASA.

There are thousands of pilots flying props on the backside of the clock in the part 135 world who make the leap over to the 121 side every day. Then on top of that you have Envoy's pipeline instructor program which has over 20 Universities and counting.

Point is, the "nobody can staff it" argument needs to die a painful death.
