Perhaps you're right concerning the number of decisions being made per leg. Somehow though, I think a professional pilot ends up trading quantity of decisions for quality of decisions the moment he or she comes this way.

The only reason they're hiring is for attrition in the FO ranks. No upgrade classes planned yet. QX has only had 1 new hire class this year and 3 of those in that class have already left. I think we'll hear more once the pay rate issue is settled.

Thats the error group way! Don't know why anyone would want to come here. If you do be prepared to sit reserve for a very, very long time and don't expect an upgrade for at least 8-12 years. Oh yea, thats into a turbo prop! The top 200+ pilots are never going to leave and retirements are virtually nonexistent for the next 5 years. Beware!

What I hear, is for the one class starting on December first, then about one class per month with 8-12 people each. Not sure for how long this will continue, but sounds like at least three classes.

Management wanted this TA to pass, a pay cut will be the lesser of two evils. I just hope they still honor the agreement on hiring 30% at Alaska. We need to give those 11 year Fo's some hope.
