OK thanks for the information! One would think something is in the works considering the amount of hiring they are still doing. How many more new deliveries are coming and how many Envoy 700 transfers are left? Any other speculation on why they're stacking pilots?

The latest I heard is that the company doesn't see itself as over staffed, instead they see it as the bare minimum that's needed to keep the wheels turning.

How senior is DCA? How long would it take to be reserve there, let alone an actual line?

ENY is hiring like bonkers as well.

A lot of bonus money out the window just to stack rsv pilots deep. Feels like something is in the works.
