This bid showing the need for 1034 positions that are vacant now. We are over staffed according to the latest news but seeing that and conventional wisdom shows we need about 1000 new pilots through next June. Add in early retirements and the Big D needs bodies just like they have said.
You millennials need to buck up. Things are not bad or dire. We are growing. We are profitable. We are retiring huge numbers. We are tired of snowflakes whining about minor issues. Man up dudes. You have it great. Sorry you can’t hold 7ER A at 3 1/2 years. Deal with it.

I'd agree with this. Everyone likes to call out millennials but I definitely hear more complaints from non millennials.

I’ve been reading all the posts to get a better understanding of the processes not to mention a FNG to Airlinepilotforums. I didn’t even Know what an AE was until this week. I’m one of the guys that received a CJO and ultimately got canceled for my Indoctranation class. You guys are the experts, what do you all think the timeline would be to start the pipeline back up based on this AE?

Let me know the category/categories and I will check JB's most excellent AE analysis product for the last AE. However, I'm pretty sure the company can't arbitrarily expand the size of a category without posting such expansion as a vacancy first.

Ah the classic Old Person vs Young Person argument. Love it.
"I had it worse, so you can't complain!!"
"I'm offended that you're complaining, but you're a snowflake!"
Anyway, back on topic. The amount of backfilling will be telling. I think we're in for a little period of stagnation, but it shouldn't be too bad due to the mass number of retirements.

This is correct however they stated it covers 80 to 90% of next summers flying so another 100 to 200 positions need to be posted. If fuel goes to 90 a barrel that could drop to zero. If fuel goes to 50 a barrel it could become 500 more. The current 75 a barrel is a serious crimp in airline business plans. It’s going to hit Delta this year to the tune of 2 billion dollars.
