Attrition for March was only about 10. But attrition from April 1st, or in the last ten days is 15 pilots. 1 retire, 1 QOL, 13 new hires at a SWA, United, Frontier Jetblue, Virgin and Delta. 4 new hires didnt pass the ground school, so subtract 4 from that class. Attrition is picking up.

That is definitely surprising. Everybody in my class made it, and as I've said before that training department will bend over backwards to help get people through. The ones that don't make it are most likely not putting in the effort.

They do. Everyone at my interview, including an active Air Force bird colonel and F-16 driver, commented on the thoroughness of the interview. I was most impressed. It made my Part 141 Chief Instructor ride, and my ATP ride, look like a pre-solo checkout

For the E175s it's 25 airplanes in 2014 and 15 in 2015 expected. Right now we're hiring faster than attrition. When I was a new hire (not that long ago) I started as the plug at #3050. We currently have 3,300 pilots on the seniority list.
