Seems as if 2500-3000 may be closer to what's planned...if 4500 are interviewed and assuming the majority interviewed are CAs, take out 20% of roughly 14000 regional CA due to lifer or unhireable (DUI, etc), then that should mean about 11000 eligible regional CAs...25% of eligible regional CAs should move on in 2014. Math is fun...and fuzzy

Agreed. All things equal TPIC reigns. But I don't see only guys with TPIC getting calls. RJ FO's are getting hired at United right now.

Info direct from the SVP - total attrition Jan-Sept for 2013 = 38 pilots. That is off a seniority list of 2500 pilots - or less than 1.5%.
Total expected for attrition Oct-Dec (including recalls) is approx. 30-40.
On the flip side the total hired to date in 2013 is 200ish and will finish the year at 260. As for 2013, he said we will hire 12 pilots per delivery (total 120-150 pilots). Thus, factoring for new deliveries, FAR 117, recalls, attrition and such, the plan is to hire 250-350 next year. At least that is what is the CP's and others are saying

We will definitely have attrition. I'll start my 2nd yr in a couple months and I know guys that are 2 years senior to me trying desperately to get on at DL and UAL. Somewhat surprising considering they're likely within 6-8 months of upgrade. This job is way better than my last regional!
