Flopgut,
When I got hired at SWA in 94 we had 3 retirements in my second year. Maybe 5 in my third. It has only been recently that our numbers have gone up. I believe this next year we have 160 or so total retirements which 40 are junior to me. This is our largest year for some time to come. Hardly comparable to the 500 to 600 that some carriers have during their peak years. Jim was hired before me and his upgrade was from growth alone as well as mine.
Jims entire career has not benefited greatly from retirements. Just growth.
