Looks like they don't need any pilots RIGHT now, any truth on that? Future classes?

That's the word. I found it hard to believe given a recent higher than average exodus of pilots in DFW. I know of seven PICs that left last month, including myself. That's pretty unheard of at BTQ. Anyway, apparently the roster was filled rather quickly.

I don't expect there will be a big class in January or February unless the company sees higher than normal attrition. Rumor is BTQ is reducing staffing at smaller bases and a few routes will be going away early next year further reducing the hiring numbers for the foreseeable future.

There's been plenty of attrition lately, so imo anything can happen.

I can confirm this. They promised 100% staffing last month but suddenly a bunch of pilots left and more are considering leaving.
