More sunrise and sunset sorts coming maybe?

I only use direct quotes from known sources when providing this type of data. Folks usually like to add their own twist, but sure they will likely need more than the 867 quoted in regards to the Vacancy award.

I heard the same thing. 900 starting this year, after the 900 are hired it will put us 15% short staffed.

In April they were telling interview groups the goal was 60+ per month for the next 18 months.

Makes sense considering we're already about 500 pilots short currently.

I see a ANC 757. Is that a typo or is the 75 really based there?

expatpilot 05-18-2021 06:53 PM

I think a typo, probably ANC77F

Hello I have a few questions to ask. I know things fluctuate a lot but just a rough estimate.

1. How long does it take for a new hire MEM 777 FO to hold a primary line and a secondary line?
2. Do 777 Relief FO lines go more senior?
3. Since the next system bid is projected to be spring/summer of 2022 would it take up to 1-2 years for you to go to your assignment? If so why? Just curious is all. Blue skies to all of you and safe flying.
