Word on the street is AA hiring for 2019 is forecast a bit higher than 2018, 1,000 hires vs. 940 hires.

Mandatory retirements will be 637 vs. 538. By 2023 it reaches 957 mandatory retirements.

That agrees with my crystal ball. I have predicted for several years the majors will be hiring 1 in 5 regional pilots every year, starting in 2021 or so.

Flows of 5 years will not be a drawing card when the average regional pilot gets hired by the majors in 5 years. (A guaranteed hire will still have some attraction, but to a lesser degree.)

The world of regionals will change at that point; radically, and for the better for pilots.

What outlandish rumors should we start based on this?

Closing Miami? Merger? CRJ displacements?

Lets say all of it above you year 1 and none of it last year, so the average of 100 pilots a year.
We know it should take about a year to flow the remaining PP, so that's a year.
Another year to flow DOS at 15 a month - another year.
If you're #2200 to flow (sound about right for a NH?), then it is
X = 2 + (2000 - 500 - 100X)/12*20
Or
X = 5.82 years (or thereabouts, I'm not good at math)
So about 6 years to flow all things remaining constant.
I am still skeptical of your attrition term. I tried to come up with an equation myself but there are just too many variables not to go with an average estimate like you did. Then I had the bright idea to compare the seniority list from two years ago and see how many pilots left above and below me the first and second year I was hear. Not a pure way of knowing the future, but at least hard evidence of past trends. It then I couldn’t find any old seniority lists because I didn’t save but one and it’s not old enough. The ALPA website only has the latest one. Does anyone have any seniority lists going back a couple years?

Or we are finally getting stapled to the AA seniority list.

(and yes, that was a joke).
Bid packet for Jan is out btw.

So in the DFW 175 bid packet looks like we start doing DFW-BOI overnights and DFW-GEG turns

Yeah I noticed even this month BOI overnights out of ORD back in the schedules. Guess SW was screwing it up, that or passengers like our 175 better.
