Isom said that they will be a fleet of “about 60” airplanes.

You believe everything an airline CEO says long term?

Oh, so we should believe the cousin of a ramper that was dating a flight attendant from another airline instead?

No, just saying if you haven’t figured it out yet this industry can change in the blink of an eye. I’ve seen many times where a ceo says something and a week later they’re going in a different direction.

American management also said AAG will never lose money in a quarter ever again. Believe that also?

I would believe AAG's wish is for PDT to have 60 planes, whether or not that ends up being possible given their systematic troubles is another matter.

Considering that we are heading towards the 200 number that he said, PSA is coming up on 150, and PDT is coming up on 60, I would say yes, in this case I believe the fleet plan. We also just received the 2019 fleet plan and our numbers are on target. PDT also has around 200 or so pilots in training which takes 8 months and in your threads it’s apparent that your recruiters are missing their targets. Your contract and work rules are even worse than ours. Not much to attract potential candidates.

Well, if nothing else our planners' bizarre decisions certainly support the idea that we are not losing any 145s.

Think we'll hit the 70-90 first officer reserve lists in ORD like last year?
