How short? Are they looking at a hiring craze like XJT?
Captains are getting called on their days off to sit in the right seats, and RAH hasn't even started getting the 175's yet...that short.

We're short now as callbacks at all majors are going on, and hiring is spooling up at other (hint....Brown...hollla at a kid). We need to crew 54 new planes. 24 of those arrive Jan-Jun '07, with the remaining 30 Jan 07 to about MAR 08. That schedule will probably change to a more agressive schedule for the 30 175s. I think DCA will continue to be what it is. As the J4J folks filter out, the backfills will continue. Training will be a hectic pace for the next 2 years, barring a catastrophe.
