Hiring classes for this year are full. Will continue to hire more for next year, though. Approximately 4500 apps on file. Not terribly interested in furloughed airline pilots. Chances of getting hired without an internal Rec are slim at best.

With NetJets not hiring in the foreseeable future, Flex has become a very hot commodity.

Just to refresh everyone’s mind, for comparison. I recall a few years ago the majors had 10,000 apps on file.

Is FlexJet growing or backfilling pilots? I suppose the guaranteed upgrade is kinda on hold right now?

Upgrades continue

Boy, you would think that business was so good, they wouldn't have had to take CARES money, and they would have at least been able to cover payroll and not write IOUs to its pilots...

Was the need because of low customers a few months ago, lower rates, or what?
