Default How many are showing up for class?

Occationally I hear people saying that xx airline had a class of 10 this month and only 2 people showed up. Could everyone check on how many people are actually entering the class and report in?

I hear Great Lakes has had several classes where no one shows up or most quit by the end of group school. Things along those lines etc.

Horizon's classes have been full. There's always the very rare no-show or person that quits during training, but that's a small enough number to be considered an anomaly. The washout rate is also very low.

Summer loads, higher need for pilots. This is where the shortage AT THE REGIONAL LEVEL will most likely be felt. The supply of qualified pilots who can afford to work for an express carrier is drying up fast.

I think this is good information for people. What % are moving from one regional to another? What % are new to flying? What about the others?

From where is Mesa getting 40 to 50 each month?

This with psa is the song of 2014, it's a weird mentality but 2015 is going to be the rush to envoy and endeavor for mainline slots and flow Movement. This industry changes in a hat drop, today's ****hole is tomorrow's hot spot. And today's minute upgrade is tomorrow's bankruptcy, history proves this 9 times put off ten. It's why qol is what you pick in base and let it ride.
