Not quite sure the last part applies. 20+ aircraft between now and end of year delivered. It's gonna get tough on erj side.

I keep saying that to myself. Enjoyed the only month (July) holding a line, back to reserve in August. Coming up on 1 year soon. I know there will be movement.

CRJ 200 and 700s leaving while ERJ adds. Things could change quickly by year end. Fly what you want.

21 CRJ100 leaving and 17 CRJ700 going back to lessors. That's about 400 pilots less required

Except for the continual 175 deliveries. I'm not calculating exact numbers but from the look of it we're going to stay mostly static, maybe slight growth. According to the earnings call and other communications they are very hesitant to commit to anything new because they aren't certain how pilot hiring is going to go.

Why do I get the distinct feeling I just fed a troll?

Most of those 175s will result in even more 200s going off line. UA wants to reduce the number in excess of 100 over the next 3 years and we have the most of them here. I just hope I upgrade and move on before the inevitable downturn and reduction in pilot numbers that is headed our way

Because you did... Everybody just stop already!

It's something like 100 175s over the next year being deliverer. We're losing very few CRJs, a lot are going to other partners, 700s replacing 200s for American. Skywest is growing, the pilot group will be between 4500-5000 before long.
