Currently there are less than 300 "lifers" on the list and that decreases to around 200 in the next few years.
FXE CFI: the NYC base is closing.
1200 active: leaving 600 Captain slots. 300 lifers is what was posted on the lounge with(230 on the line). Half of envoys Captain slots will be taken up by lifer Captains. HALF. That is not going to change for the better part of a decade either. Therein lies envoys major problem.
