February classes were low. The system classes starting Monday on the CRJ is 40 ERJ 11. Classes run every two weeks. Heard the next CRJ is over 40. Not saying will grow our list. That’s becoming tuff. But. We need to hire 40-60 each month to break even. Looks like March 1- April 1 will be -9 pilots..

I don’t know about the wee-jet, is 11 a normal new hire class size?

Good. Maybe we can get a real TA around here then.

1 they want 175 capability in-house. It will attract SJS applicants
2 Compass will eventually lose the DL contract.
3 they need a 2nd west coast player and don't want to put all eggs in the OO basket. Can you imagine the pull of a 9E west coast option with 175? I assume they rather task 9E with it than YX.

Upgrades are on a different footprint then NH’s. Less sims/grnd. So yes. No CA/FO pair unless they are “transition” upgrades. And going through the full course.. we even have a few NH short course guys. (Already typed in the CRJ)

I still cannot believe the last TA passed. The lifers got their higher 401k and the rest of us got nothing. All we heard from both the company and our SAPA president was the idea of growth, fast upgrades, and the health of the company. Well, less than a year later we have a net loss of 8 pilots and the company metering upgrades. 83 pilots gone and, to me, the real telling part is 46% of them were FOs. The DVR said there were 40 captain slots open this month and only 25 were awarded.
So much for growth.

Any rough idea how long it would take a new-hire to ATL to be able to hold a line there?
What is the best metric to look at to determine stuff like that? (I'm new to the 121 world).
