While I have been accused of being a suspect before, I know I am not "usual". So the above comments do not apply to me, nor to my comments.
I would offer up a number just slightly north of 1800 on the number of active Envoy pilots.

Fair enough. 205 upgrades/1977 pilots. That's just under 21% of the F/O's are slated to upgrade next year based on 50/50 Captain/FO ratio. If you have a different official number for 2016 upgrades, by all means post that too.

New Envoy Information
As soon as you post something that's actual fact and not your own long-winded inflated opinion maybe there would actually be room for a discussion or rebuttal.
There's no censorship here...that works both ways in case you hadn't noticed. You're just as free to fill the forums with your blather as I am to call bs on it. I'd say feel free to keep posting, but I know you can't help yourself.
Usual suspects?
You're like those clowns that harass people and play the victim card when they get punched. "It's just a prank, bro!"
Put me on ignore.
No.

Facts ?
Again, 205 upgrades in 2016 and 250-300 flows in 2016. I cannot state it more factual then that. You say those aren't facts ?
Then dispute it with specifics. Your move and please, don't call Jerry. Think and act for yourself for a change.

In the interest of better accuracy, this must be corrected. It appears the flying allocation IS out for Envoy, but only for 1Q2016. Jan/Feb remains at previous low levels and thus lines will decrease, schedules will remain poor and reserves high. March is supposed to improve though. Since no full year projection was given unlike previous years, it appears either AAG isn't confident enough to place all its yearly chips with Envoy or they are planning contraction and may just not want to beat the bushes to startle the snakes. Most admit Envoy is overstaffed and will contract to a smaller carrier in the 1200-1600 pilot range, so these developments would support that.

We just finished the line build for the January, and the challenges that we have faced throughout this year remain consistent: fewer block hours and the company’s headcount projection. Developing a good variety of lines from weak flight files remains the most significant issue. We are not presented with the planned hours... we only receive the flight file and projected hours. The January flight file hours were even lower than projected hours for the month. Both bases are down about 30 lines apiece from previous months. Over the course of the January build we were able to get the line count up and keep some lines with the four-on three-off. In the end, January will look very similar to the last few months.
We have received a projection of block hours for the first quarter of 2016 and while January and February remain depressed, March sees an uptick in hours to be flown. If that trend holds true it bodes well for our ability to make better schedules. We are awaiting receipt of the planned hours for the remainder of 2016.
If you have any suggestions and concerns, please reach out to us

Sounds good. No debate there. See? Wasn't that easy? Short, to the point, and factual. I knew you could do it. Good boy!

Is that small paragraph too long for you or should I draw it in crayon as a follow-the-lines picture ?
