It can be calculated from the annual report - page23
2015 number of staff 26,824. % cockpit crew 14.2 so 3,809 crew (CX & KA)
2016, 26,674, % crew 14.6 so 3,894 crew, gain of 85 crew
Block hours (page 112) from 823,000 to 826,000
Crew grew by 2.2%
Block hours by 0.4%
Block hours/ crew from 216 to 212, so reduction of 1.9%
Page 25 of the annual report - CX & KA recruited "around" 240 pilots (230 CX, 10 KA)
So attrition rate was 155 crew, or 4% (includes retirements)
However, it also says that 85 cadets graduated. If these are not included in the 240 pilots recruited (but I would think they are) that bumps attrition up to 6%
