The truth shall set you free, UPT grads are still getting RPAs if no jets available, but numbers are low. Plus UPT grads incur a 10 yr commitment, so they aren't leaving AF anytime soon.
This pipeline has nothing to do with UPT, this is a separate program.

Also might I add that many dudes are just waiting for the hiring too start before they punch. Many are getting pretty frustrated with the ol'mil and looking for the airlines......once hiring begins I would expect many to punch as soon as they can....
