Last 'early out' count I saw showed about 39 DTW 747 Capts. leaving, and they are only replacing 20 of them....hmmm...oh, and a bunch of DTW A330 A's going too, yet zero replacements there? Yeah, I see the ATL A330's, but still it's downsizing obviously.

The way I read it was that this upcoming AE is only one of [potentially] several AEs and they are not attempting to replace all RMAs in one swoop due to training issues and early-out withdrawals. (That would be a swift kick to have your award reversed before you even got to training.)

Hopefully the next few AEs prove to be an overall net positive and reverse the trend.

I'd be shocked if Delta hires this year. My guess is new hires in the fall of 2013 or early 2014.

Bottom line is the airline is still shrinking, we are overstaffed and we just voted yes to a contract that requires fewer pilots to staff the airline. Hope I'm wrong and we see new hires this year.

I wonder though, if you change the required number of reserves by allowing flying to the ALV+15, why would we need a 1:1 replacement on the categories most effected by such a change?
