[BMD]

Does anyone have any opinions on how many pilots JB will need with the purchase of 65 new Airbuses? Just looking for info. BMD

Well, don;t know what formula they use for staffing there, but generally, yo can plan on 12 pilots per plane. That would cover guys in trainng, out on medical, sick, checkrides, etc.

If you're out there,looking, good luck to you, Like that Avatar.

65 airplanes would be around 800 pilots. 202 airplanes by 2012 would be around 2500 pilots.

Any guess on which O&Ds JetBlue will be flying when they get to 200 planes?
