Lower mins are coming...? They need 700 MORE next year. Where will they come from?

Back in June When I interviewed there were close to 30 people.

In talking to my friends that interviewed recently the average per group was around 12. So it sounds as though they are starting to run out.

10/10 Class Breakdown:

EMB:
10 JFK
8 LGA
8 ORD
CRJ:
4 ORD
ATR:
2 SJU

My friend just interviewed last week and said there were only 5 people in his group and another person said the previous week only 6. Are they really starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel or were those just 2 "off" days?

When I interviewed a year ago, there were only 6 or 7 of us interviewed.

It's been stated at all the recent job fairs and to new-hires. Also on Eagle Lounge.

Wow, slim pick'ns for bases. I start class October 24th. I hope DFW opens up by then.

If you compare todays with weeks prior you'll notice a general flip flop between emphasis. Aug 1st had lots of DFW and no ORD. July 4th had lots of ORD and very little DFW.

Everything depend in pilot movement. If there are a bunch of people from DFW moving from FO to CA then will be more DFW. Also every couple of days pilots moves from a base to another according with the flow plans.
