Good info!

Does anyone know what the plans are for the summer and into the fall?
Last year we only hired one class a month during Jun Jul and
Aug then picked it back up in Sep.

By my rough calculations this would equal about 1300 pilots hired from the start of hiring in April 05 through May 07

Ex,

Do you know if 73 class assignments for new hires are all SN (-300, 700 etc) are do they include
LN (-8/900) airframes as well? Thanks.

73's are all types.. 300/500/700/800/900
On reserve, one gets the blended rate. When flying the line, pay depends on airframe flown, but they don't hire into different pay classes among the 73's. Hope this helps.

Personally, I'm not putting too much stock in these projections. I'm sure they change quite often. A post on another board advertised all 737 with 50% IAH for the March 13th class and a mixture of 737 IAH/EWR and 756 EWR for the March 6th class. I just want to get my seniority number. I'll worry about domiciles on day 2 of training.

The people that seem to get hired without PIC seem to fall into a few different catagories. Intern, Son/daughter, EEOC, or mega-connected.
