There was an announcement of 600/yr in 2014 indefinitely.

Where did you hear this? I've heard your number (unofficially) and as high as 750 for 2014 (again unofficially) but haven't seen anything in writing.

Nice! Must've missed that one in all the other inbox clutter.

The most recent numbers put out are 600/year. That equals 50/month for the year. Of course the actual numbers rarely match the planned numbers.

I don't think we are capable of training 750 a year. 600 is totally possible and most likely will happen. You guys/gals that are getting on at the beginning of this will have a career VERY similar to those of us that have been here since 2000. Consider yourselves VERY fortunate.

Just to clarify what I believe G2B is saying, the seniority of newhires will not be far behind pilots hired in 2000. Your advancement will be in close proximity to those pilots hired in 2000 which is about to start some upward momentum (finally).

I do not believe G2B was implying that you could expect to have a similar career as a pilot hired in 2000 which would involve a furlough.
