I'm not sure if you have better info, but I was recently in MCO and they showed us the slide of projected class sizes for the rest of the year. The 6/18 class is projected for 34 pilots (30 A320, 4 E190). The next class was just over 20 (with a similar split between bus/190) and then it dropped off to 10-14 pilots per class for the remainder of the year. There weren't a lot of E190 slots showing in the newhire classes (maybe 20-30 E190 slots total for the remainder of the year).

To add to that, the most recent class on 5/27 was supposed to be 10 A320 and 10 E190, but it wound up being all A320 slots in JFK/BOS.
