And the low time people we are getting are just using Piedmont for 121 experience and jumping ship in within a year. (suprised they haven't started some sort of training contract)
I heard our attrition has been crazy in terms of FO's going to other regionals. More Captains have been leaving lately to go to Airtran and other Larger Carriers.
I don't want to discourage people from coming here, its a great place in terms of pay and working contract and the pilots whom you work with. However if we don't get new equipment and show some sort of promising future we aren't gonna find anyone willing to come and fly here for more then 6 months.
been hearing that there is no one left at PDT that was hired in '03....PDT New Hires said:"I don't want to have to go to training again"
