Don't let the door hit ya. Oh, and when you get there ask them how many new hires they're putting through class every month... you know, just to get ready for all those good times to come. Hopefully, it's a lot more than the 100+ here while we prepare for the 'shrinkage'.

Hmmmm. Our seniority list seems to disagree with you, but please enlighten us. We've been hiring over a hundred a month for quite some time now. Losing 40 to 50 per month but our list is still growing. Please explain your math skills.

I don't think we are getting 100 a month. That would be awesome though as I would move up quickly. But the shrink will come. Both DL and UA are taking back their flying and at a faster rate. i learned in college that airlines hires until they furlough. Sitting around here waiting to upgrade in 4 years is a terrible personal plan if there are airlines upgrading in under a year. I'm doing what I need to do. You all can do what you want. Wait it out here if you feel that will get you to the majors

If you were hired 8 months ago, you'd have 600 pilots junior to you on the list.
-- But you can't look at the list because you don't work here do you?

Could you hold LAX after training? If not, how long? I'm looking to stay close to home.

Nope. Most Junior CRJ FO is an April 2015 hire. It's slightly more junior on the 175, but the base doesn't open until May. This is subject to change however, but as of right now it's one of the more senior FO bases we have.
