SWA Info
From today's SWA Pravda:
SWA Adds New Jet to Fleet SWA accepted delivery of our second new -700 of 2008 when N904WN was added to our fleet of 737s earlier this week. We also retired one plane. This brings our current total fleet count to 521. With 27 more deliveries and 21 more retirements planned for the year, our fleet total should reach 527 planes by yearend. Here is some info for you poolies, looks like 6 net airplanes for this year. |

My buddy has the same pool date, and he is planning on an early 2010 class. FWIW
Please elaborate on your "buddy." Those numbers are way off and if I am guessing right you are simply trying to inflate (or flamebait) your sense of self worth. If your buddy is that far from being hired at SWA why don't you get him a job at Brown? Fact is having seen this industry evolve for years if he isn't hired until 2010 the rest of the industry is in for some huge difficulty.:p |
He must have meant 2009. At least that is more realisitic, i think, but who knows. I have a Sep 07 pool date and am figuring on first part of 2009.

Fact is having seen this industry evolve for years if he isn't hired until 2010 the rest of the industry is in for some huge difficulty.:p How is early 2010 so hard for you to believe? It's already early 2008 right now. If they are only hiring 150 this year, he will still be 150 in the pool by this time next year. If he's #150 in the pool in early 2009, he still will likely have another year to go - unless SWA plans on training many more from the pool in 2009. So, why is two and a half years in the pool so unrealistic? I've heard it's been that long in the past? Also, in my opinion only, SWA isn't the airline that it used to be. They won't see the tremendous domestic growth like they have in the past. |

Brown, I hate to say it but 150 would be at best. I kind of agree with you,if the retirees come in front of them well who knows,but anything can happen.

Where did you get this info from? It wasn't on the SWALife home page. Normally they post that on there when we get a new plane.
