But huds are the best thing ever according to our top gun guy. Makes perfect sense to but dual huds instead of dual autopilot.... f

He makes himself seem less like an actual pilot with those posts. Sounds soooo trollish

7 retired
1 terminated
1 death

Nowhere near 33%

Also, projecting 35-40 for June 6th class. (On track to hit the JB goal of 405, but I have my doubts about this 500 rumored thing, if it is more than a rumor here on APC and BP).
Where do you get this? I really don’t know.

New guy here. 29 new hires between the 2 classes in May. Recruitment was down at OSC doing interviews last week. Recruiter said 30 a month has been the target but that June will be 70ish with a class of 30~ and a class of 40~.

They said goal for the year was north of 400. They claimed next year is shaping up for 500+

Its subject to have changed 10 times already but that's the projection as of last week.

Appreciate the update.


For those of us on property, the June system bid will be a big sign for future plans. I just hope we haven’t brought 800 folks on in 2 years and we upgrade 40.....

June and August bid should be pretty revealing on wether they actually intended to take all those airbus that were pushed into 2020 or not.

Really have no opinion on June, besides my usual JB expectations. But I would advise caution about expecting much from the August bid. I expect the August bid will be very underwhelming, and that they intend to make up the difference via supplemental bids as/if needed. If they put out a bid for 500+, I'll be shocked and I think that would:

1. Requiring planning a year ahead, yeah right.

2. Lock them into an aggressive plan, yeah right.

Even if they plan (right now) to hire 500+, I doubt they put that in the August bid.

Again, my opinion.
