That's been changing lately. When I interviewed in March it took about 2 months for class to start but they have backed up a bit. Maybe 3-5 months now. But it keeps changing so who knows.

Yup.

For those in the process, don't be surprised to see it to change once the seasonal reduced summer training schedule is over. It's all about timing.

According to that chart, no one retires in 2048 or later? That can't be right. Surely there have to be pilots at United in their 20s and under age 32.

Curious, how many pilots are at United right now that are under age 32? (Born 1984 or higher)?

Yeah, that's probably it. Curious to see updated numbers and how many current United pilots are younger than 32 (born 1984+).

I would guess 10 percent out of the new hires starting February 2013 when the doors opened

1812 total so 180 under 30 is fair assumption

Average age of the new hires I say is around 38 , just a quick guess

Too many retired military and 15 year RJ drivers
