Republic is definitely one of the better regionals, but why would anyone wait almost a year to get on the seniority list? That much seniority is more important then pay IMHO. If the economy tanks, you’re flight instructing forever.

Republic overhired in anticipation of getting additional flying, which ExpressJet got instead. Bedford keeps saying there’s a ton of flying coming up for bid, but we won’t be getting that flying either.
There were only 8 FO vacancies posted for June, all of which were for PIT.

To your second sentence, you don’t know that. No one does.
The 8 vacancies are because we aren’t running new hire classes in Feb or Mar.

This for sure! By the time the December hires are on the line, by my estimate, sometime around June/July we will be over staffed by something like 400-500 pilots. We could immediately accept 40-50 airplanes.
