9-10 PILOTS (5 crews) per jet. 10-12 pilots (6 crews) per Saab. Roughly.
Our current seniority list ends at roughly 600. It will be in the neighborhood of 975-1000 by the end of 2008 to staff 49 Saabs and 36 CR9's at current utilization rates.

Remember, part of the interview process is to sell you the company. Don't read too much into what you may have been told at the interview. They will always paint the most optimistic outlook they can.

if MES gets 15 RJ's this year, that equates to 75 crews. you have at least 250 people left. The first new hire class starts April 23, so they won't be ready until June. in 7 months to lose 250 pilots seems excessive (35+ a month)
Maybe they'll just run more routes or more crews. Hey if the 900 picks up some slack for the DC-9, that'd make sense.
