Pilot shortage-give your report
 

Just wondering what other regionals are seeing. We have all heard tons of news discussing not enough pilots. So at this point, please list the airline you work for and its trend. It would be interesting to hear from guys who are at majors and low cost as well.

SkyWest has added about 100 in the last 9 months.

Is that a NET gain of pilots at SkyWest???

Yes, net gain. I am really interested in the fact regionals are or are not able to maintain their numbers in the last 6 months or year hence a real pilot shortage or not. I personally don't buy the pilot shortage thing, so I am asking.

PDT hired 108 and retained 95 since last January.

This constitutes the lower 25% of our seniority.

Republic is experiencing a net loss, they are cancelling daily flights as a result.

Nothing against Republic or shuttle but ya'lls performance is **** poor. i guess thats because the flights are getting cancelled?

Well I would think so. Instead of pointing that out, what is Jet Blue doing? Gain, shrink?

Because the pilots have ANY control over performance.

Don't think he's at jet blue. But they are growing.
