Any news on what bases they will be going to?

New hire here, so not on the company emails yet.

Mentioned growth in DTW, with expanded flying out of RDU and CVG but no new crew bases announced. "Driving force for [Delta Connection's] success east of the Mississippi" - line from the memo.

Also, welcome to the team. Obviously, you got in at the right time.

Overall, standard staffing per airframe is about 6 CA/6 FO, but when you consider this is incremental growth and a support structure is already in place (for instance, no new crew bases, no new simulators so no real need for additional sim instructors) they can get away with less, about 5 of each. So we will likely only see about 20 captain upgrades per bi monthly vacancy for the growth plus a bit for attrition. Not sure this will do too much to help our upgrade time.

I did not, but I know the classes are 10 per week. Seems to be full steam ahead over there.

The remaining seven 900's at G7 are good through 2022 but "Delta is working with them to evaluate the possibility of an earlier removal."

RDU maintenance base, but no plans for a crew base ☹️

The 1 per month is the new 900’s. 2 700’s per month starting Nov. So 3 planes per month total starting January.

You got to sleep in then. 5:15 report for me. But finally some news that doesn’t have only Skywest in it

The email said they will only hire 30 a month. Last month we lost 38 and we have been doing better with attrition probably averaging around 30 a months so it doesn't make sense to me how they only plan to hire 30 a month.
