If the schoolhouse slows down for new hires in the summer I suppose that means upgrades do as well?

It is possible but who knows? We always go off of pilots per plane to get a rough estimate. Current projections are;

March- 161 — 2254
June- 165 —2310
Oct- 167 —2338

All are fairly easy numbers to make. Utilization has been going down in a boost to profitability so we don’t know exactly how many block hours they have planned for our busiest months. Attrition has picked back up with a little under one a day again so I don’t see them stopping classes at all this year but again, who knows?

you joined 1/24 so you must be new. Focus on learning and not upgrade

Those seem like very modest hiring numbers. I think we are likely to see a month or two during the summer with no new hires or upgrades. But as you mention, aircraft utilization matters a lot.

Does anyone have any sort of guess as to how upgrade times shake out over the next 12-24 months?

Also hot damn ATL is *growing*. Somehow became super junior overnight.
