Yup, my opinion.

That's the major difference between us. I represent my assertions as opinion (and use that term all the time), whereby you all insinuate certainties. Each foundation sends a different message to those that read it in consideration.

Keep howling your certainties though and I'll be here to offer my opinions in rebuttal.
The jackal defense already? Aww, poor thrustynuts.

Don't worry, we believe you! The flow will never reach the 824 and AA will furlough 400+ post merger. Sure...we believe you. Don't cry.

You or the rest of the pack believe me about anything ?

That has never occurred on this forum. Of course, that would be not only a pointless goal for me, but a worthless one Sammy.

Was making a Piedmont comment, realized I was in envoy forum. I posted, then panicked. I'm still shaking, post edit....

Notice how Skyvector conveniently ignores a post with hard numbers in it. Doesn't even try to refute it or anything.

Why? It scares him. He knows it's real info and all he can do is regurgitate company drivel and projectile vomit their projections into a post. When presented with hard numbers which equals a snapshot of history as to where I get my hiring projection for the year, no comment.

The Sales Team hopes this particular piece of information gets buried in this mountain of meaningless blather about how stupid Thrustlever/Eaglefly is and worthless keyboard strokes attacking myself.

All you can do is look at the previous hiring numbers and see what that trends to and make a projection. Aren't you in recruiting? Don't they have you looking at hiring numbers in the past and comparing to what you are getting now along with other carriers? I assume that you share info with other regionals.

I gave some a few posts up but here's a brief version. 44 new hires this year so far. With the super duper bonus announcement yesterday for Part 135 guys, you may see the numbers trend higher over the next couple of months but back down later averaging out to about 14.6 per month for 175 this year. Hey, didn't Eagle want to hire 600 in 2013 and you got what, about 150? A good many of those have since left the building thanks to AAGs draconian tactics.

Hired 150 in 2013. About 70 of those left. 12.5 average for 2013.
About 2780 total pilots on list at end of 2013.

Hired 110 in 2014. About 61 of those left. 9.1 average for 2014.
About 2370 total pilots on list at end of 2014.

Hired 100 in 2015. About 95 of those left. 8.3 average for 2015.
About 1960 total pilots on list at end of 2015.

Hired 44 in 2016. ?? are left. 14.6 average for 2016.
About 1850 total pilots on list at present.

Congratulations! Envoy has managed to chase off about 930 pilots through flow/normal attrition/retirement/flat out quitting, etc. in 2 1/2 years! A bit under 500 in flow alone since then so 430 just got fed up and left it seems. Looking at the list above, I'm leaning toward the good side in estimating hires for 2016. 175 is more than you've gotten in any year since 2013. We will see if it happens. If so, Envoy is still in trouble in regards to total staffing.

They don't want you to shrink anymore. AAG has finally figured out that they do indeed need pilots to fly their cheap feed and are throwing the cheap bucks at you right now. I said before that the floor was 1500 then revised to 1600ish. Now, with the CRJ's staying, 140/145's returning and possible new 175's, they need 1700-1800 in my estimation.

You don't have many to lose until you have to fill those vacancies.

Maybe they didn't see your post. Lemme help...

Do you mean your attempt at redirection when RyanP confronted your incorrect statements about the 824?

No redirection there. RyanP presented projection numbers, just subtraction and had nothing to back it up. No new hires needed apparently. I'm helping him out here.

Anyhow, off the record verbal claims are a dime a dozen (actually now a nickel), but official written communique that they'd actually have to stand behind would carry the minimum weight for this claim. It also means Envoy management would have to concur and for Envoy management to concur AAG management would have to concur and it is AAG that feeds the bulldog in this department.

But.......as I've repeatedly asked for (for the benefit of all), could you please post some quantifiable facts instead of unconfirmed claims ?

Thanks.
They only put out confirmed information for the next classes several weeks before hand. This is how they do it and will continue to do it. What do you expect us to provide you with? You know as well as I do that they will not assign class dates for everyone out into the future, in writing, signed by the President of the United States backed by the Federal government with an Insurance Policy secured by Gold Bricks in Ft Knox. No company in this industry has that kind of security with any claim or contract. All we know is what the arbitration award is, what they have been doing with flow numbers this year, how they have been honoring the deal, they honored the 30/mo change many people claimed would NEVER happen. We also know what the future hiring projections are and what mandatory retirement numbers look like. That is a good a projection as anyone can provide for anything in this industry with the information we have. Is it 100% guaranteed. Of course not. Nothing is. Could everything go to hell if they don't get new hires? Of course. Have they gotten to the point yet where they need to throw money at them or else? They are starting to. They have already done what everyone said would never happen here and very recently given a 20K bonus to our FO's. Given up to 15K bonus out to new hires. This is just the beginning.They said they will continue to do what they have to do to get people in the door. They are the largest airline in the world making billions of dollars, they can afford to get people here, they always wait until last minute. It's how they have operated for the past 15 years I have been watching this company do things.

There is no long term facts with an iron clad guarantee no matter what in this entire industry. Maybe we will all get furloughed. Oh well, back to a different career field where I made more money anyway. Maybe Earth will be hit by a giant meteor and it will land right on Envoy headquarters next year? Every regional airline could be out of business 6 months from now.. (or not). Why don't you go over to the Skywest or Frontier threads and tell them they may not be employed next year. Ask them to show you the guarantee that they will be! They are telling new hires they will be based in ORD and upgrade quick, OMG.. maybe they won't be if the airline goes out of business due to something happening, or they merge, or cancel orders, or don't get a contract! Those guys on those threads are SALESMAN!!! LIARS!!! Go after them, tell them the alternative universe plans if things don't go as planned!!!

Jesus! I can just picture Eaglefly arguing with a freaking rock on the side of the road, just for the sake of arguing it and telling it that maybe it isn't really a rock. You will need to see the proof and hard evidence that it really is a rock! "Maybe Mr. Rock, you are just a hardened clump of dirt which is stuck together due to baseless mud and you will erode into nothing more than dust in a few weeks, possibly a month. I know the others around here are claiming you are certainly a rock and will be around for a long time. Clearly, they are desperately trying to sell you off as a being a rock, but I am not convinced. I think maybe you are a false scammer rock, trying to pass yourself off as a rock for your own personal gain and I shall expose it to the world. I am not buying this rock scam you are selling. I will need further evidence in writing from multiple sources of authority and of course a confirmation from the President of the Smithsonian Institute of Natural History to prove these baseless assumptions of all the other local jackal geologists, that you are indeed a rock".
