Default ExpressJet Hiring

Anybody have a January class date? I know the 3 in December are completely full.

Just got out of the school house and rumor has it 300-600 new hires for 2012.

Crossing my fingers hoping that the hiring continues!

Sounds about like the number of pilots AE might furlough...

Personally, I think that is a vastly unrealistic number. Maybe for 2013+ but I would believe it if you cut a zero off the end of that range. We would all hope for hiring numbers like that but without taking gaining airframes I would find it hard to believe any numbers near that for just an increase in block hours across the fleet.

The 300-600 number is correct for the former XJT side, we just don't know which end of the scale it's going to be at yet. We need to upgrade a large number of FOs next year in order to staff ourselves properly. The projected number of upgrades is currently around 300. This comes straight from our head of pilot recruitment. I wouldn't be too surprised to see an addition number of guys coming from the former ASA side in addition to those who were on furlough from XJT.

Yeah I think those numbers are pretty large too.

Funny you think that since our hiring was within that range THIS year.

By the end of the year, XJT will have hired 450+ for 2011.

I feel fortunate to be part of the first 100 of that.
