25 A319s from China and 17 A319 from Spirit, 8 737-900 , 6 787 and 10 777-300s
and all will be delivered within the next 14 months
66 additions with only 4 757s and 1 744 parked
That's 1500 more pilots needed for the above plus 415 retirements
Confirmed

Not sure who confirmed that for you. According to Spirits SEC filings found on their web page, they are returning 3 319s in 2016 and 4 319s in 2017.

Projections? Take any with a grain of salt.
Yet, guys are leaving in droves and seniority numbers will drop 800 numbers in the next 24 months and 1500 in the next 48. This total does not include guys losing their medicals, early outs etc. Widebody (augmented) planes are coming which will skew hiring up. Gas is cheap, profits are up and they have finally come to the conclusion that flying uncomfortable and inefficient 50 seat RJs into choked hubs is false economy.
Barring something heinous, UA and the rest will be hiring gangbusters for the next few years.
