How many guys go to American in 2015 will make a difference. It could be anywhere from 48 to 80+. Right now, American is taking more than the minimum required per the LOA.

That, and how many go to Delta, United, FedEx, UPS, JetBlue, Spirit, VA, Frontier, Atlas, etc.

I would assume much more attrition that just the required hiring via the LOA.

You assumed wrong, the only captains leaving are going to American. Maybe a coupe in the last 12 months have left for United, but that's it. FOs aren't leaving either. Very little attrition going on at PSA. FOs that have been here under a year and bail don't count.

That could be true now, I really don't have any data that suggests otherwise. Moving forward, as mainline, cargo, and LCC hiring continues to accelerate, it isn't hard to imagine junior captains that don't want to wait for their shot at AA having their apps out at all of the above.

Just about 95% of guys have their apps in at American, Delta, United and that's it. The only guys that have a fighting chance at United are check airman and it's unlikely anyone will get on with Delta.

Perhaps that's true now, but a year from now? Five years from now? Lots of hiring to come at all the majors.

We just had 2 go to Delta and more than a few go to
United. They are starting to go to more places than just American

Does anyone here know if it is after ioe that we go on cass or who to really contact?

thanks
The Code is US followed by the 6 numbers on the front of your
US Airways Express Badge except when jumpseating on PSA then its
JS followed by the same number.I checked mine about midpoint
during IOE with the gate agent.Thats the best way since nobody seems to know...Hope that helps

If anybody has any questions about training or flying for PSA you can contact Joe at 859-466-7226​. He helped me and was very knowledgeable about the process.
