Thanks and good to know we are bringing more pilots in. I wonder how long they will keep up this pace? Seems like it is more than they were planning.

It sounds like they are going to start deferring deliveries.

They always says hiring 400, and we end up hiring 250

I still think they are going to have to hire a lot just to cover rsv rules and vacation. I don’t really see that number going down. I think the deferrals were just to delay the massive training schedule.

From a guy on the negotiating committee, the new vacation policy that goes into effect in 2020 was estimated to account for 180-200 new hires. Those are new hires above and beyond what's needed for growth, attrition, etc. over the next two years.

My guess is the deferrals are simply a case of capacity issues related to training.

It says the deferrals are related to airbus production issues.

Sure. I’m positive that’s what they will want everyone to believe
