They plan to up it to 12 every two weeks sometime in the next few months.

I'm surprised they can get that many people to go there.

Do you understand what the OP was asking? That is all.

I think the most junior captain is around Dec 2007/ Jan 2008. That puts us at 6 year plus upgrade time. But since we haven't hired anyone for 2.5 years after that, the upgrade will fall to 3 years in the next few months. Talk about timing...

Motormadness got it right! That is all.

The 12 every two weeks are captain upgrade classes. New hires classes are 25 every two weeks and about to be upped to 30.

PSA has taken delivery of ZERO new airplanes and they can't staff the -200/-700's they have now.

Food for thought. If I had a little brother who wanted to be an airline pilot he would be anywhere but that Pathetic Sucky Airline.

The information on aviationinterviews.com seems to be detailed and updated regularly. The information there comes from interview candidates and seems to contradict the naysayers here. PSA doesn't appear to have a problem filling classes. Apparently, they have contract instruction (flight safety, etc.) set up to handle any training backlogs, "IF NEEDED". Apparently, new hires go to ABC city to get trained....upgrades go to XYZ city to get trained. Just some FYI, good luck....http://www.airlinepilotforums.com/im...cons/icon7.gif

They aren't even slated to start taking deliveries until June..The first one is already done and being inspected in YUL. The second one will be completed next month.
