Envoy
on average, how many people upgraded per month during the year of 2018? Any guess or way to estimate how many will during 2019, given there was a hiring spree for that group of FOs? Will there be vastly more FOs hitting 950hrs this year?

Yeah honestly we haven’t even hit the large group of FO’s upgrade ready yet. That should happen on the next vacancy.

Sometimes smoke is just smoke. Everyone was saying BIG NEWS when we were pouring hundreds of FOs into the 50-100 man 145 reserve lists. Nothing happened. Not saying something won’t happen, but I’m not holding my breath.

Nov 2011, start of bankruptcy ~3000 pilots
December 2013, end of bankruptcy ~2700 pilots
Spring of 2016, point of smallest pilot group ~1800
The fleet size is usually 11 pilots per airplane give or take a bit. Keep in mind that we're still down 2 domiciles since the start of bankruptcy. San Juan is probably never coming back but I heard from the former college roommate of a dentist who's patient is the sister of a united ramper in LAX that we're totally getting that base back.
