Today's vacancy is just to place the new hire class. The new hires are not eligible to upgrade, so just take a chill pill. We grow much much faster next year than this year. I suspect upgrade time will get shorter, not longer.

For over a year we were losing 20, 30, 40 pilots a month without a single new hire class. We thought a lack of new hires would incentivize our management to provide a reasonable offer. We were wrong.

Were in a similar boat so I truly understand what you guys are going through. I just dont want new hires being blamed for lack of progress because there would be no progress anyway. Your opponents are in Denver 'poking the bear' Not the guys and gals walking in the door from a regional.

Nobody is blaming the new hires we are warning them of what a s show this place is. I want all new hires to fully know what they are getting into, what is indisputably the bottom of the barrel narrow body 121 operator. After exploring all their options if they truly think this is the only place that will take them I welcome them warmly, albeit I feel sorry for them. However, your comparison is apples to oranges and not valid.

Probably has more to do with things like sim availability and keeping the work load of the training department low for July than anything else. That class schedule that was floating around from several months ago never had a July upgrade planned either.

If I remember correctly a third sim coming on starting in October. Hadn’t heard anything about 30 a month.

Not to mention that beginning sometime next year all PC's will now be 2 day events. Guess we'll see how it all plays out once they decide to ramp up the hiring and upgrades.
