Our difference is we're still a tiny pilot group. I doubt we will grow over 600 pilots. So if we can take 2 jets and park one dash, we feel it as huge movement. Especially with the flow.

Yes hiring is a problem.. We took 6 in last week and have over 15 end of month secured.
I know both September classes are going to be bigger. The recruiting team is really going above and beyond. Lots of boxers.

It is not swapping 1 for 1. We are retiring 5 dashes by end of fourth quarter. By that time we will have added 14 145s.. That's a net gain of nine aircraft. That leaves us with 32 dashes. Starting Jan we take 2 145s and in February we take 3 a month.

Just like with the other 2 WOs and with other regionals, fleet plans look great on paper but when it comes down to actually staffing that flying... Good luck. None of the WOs are that attractive to new hires right now. PSA is supposed to be receiving the 35 remaining 700s from Envoy. Envoy had orders for 40 175s and options for 90 more. No one can attract new hires.

You are getting some really bad info from someone. RJET hasn't lost anywhere near 40 a month since the contract was ratified. Also, the 170's are coming back. Already on the schedule for revenue flights in November.
