It was when we were paid PSIA (peer set industry average). My raise would have been about $0.25/hr had it happened.

Funny thing is that particular raise that never happened would have been more than this year's profit sharing check.

How low is my GAS meter? Below 0.2%.

That was before my time, did they actually use “de minimis” about that too?

Newhires get 13 FLL vacancies and 109 JFK bus vacancies. Interesting.

Those 109 bus vacancies just saved the training department.

The ability to put new hires through the bus instead of all of them going through the 190 is huge for OSC.

It's still going to be tough. That's 119 E190 pilots that need to be trained by September 1. That's 20 E190 pilots a month (more or less), which has to be close to the max throughput OSC can train. Keep in mind August is when the instructors go through their own recurrent cycle, which reduces training capacity.

Imagine had it been 228 190 vacancies like it could’ve been.

Still a lot of FO’s are going to be waiting around the terminal for their captains... only 40 upgrades.

So are they getting FLL right out of training? If not, how long to obtain FLL for a new hire? And do they just have the bus there or the 190 too?
