Hiring about 70 per month. I think it's safe to say that reserve is 1-3 months, regardless of base.

And that is the kicker, I haven't even started IOE yet. I hear that they will have 8 more IOE check airman online middle of Febuary. So, I'm just sitting at home getting paid. Doing a little flight instructing on the side, so I remember how to fly.

Shouldn't be too long then! My class is just getting to the IPTs... Ready to get on with the whole thing and head to sims.

Had a friend hired yesterday for a late March class. He's said it was almost full with some of his interview group getting an April class.

The very first 200 doesn't come off lease till 2018, then the last one drops off all the way into 2021.
