Default UPS 2007 hiring plans

The latest is they plan to hire 227 pilots in 2007. The number is a little lower than people have heard since 727 displacements have filled about 100 pending new hire slots. Already have hired 84 as of March 2007....

Of the Remaining 143 FOs, 16 will be probationary DC8 F/Es switching fleets.
The 143+16 breaks down as follows:
MD11 ANC: 78
A300: 6
757: 51 (11 SDF, 22 Z, 15 ONT, 3 MIA)
DC8: 5
744: 19

Good luck to all who await.

Well I hear that ANC lines are not commutable, but grab a bid and look.
MD SDF or Z would be decent gigs, but reserve can be 16 days in a row, and 32 if you straddle 2 bids, i'm assuming you are ultra junior where it occurs most.

Domestic does the work, I've always been advised to stay away from 757 Domestic.

I ended up going west because I could hold a line.

Cheers,
