I'd guess about 40 FOs have 1000 hours with the company and are choosing to bypass. Each month, about 4 FOs will hit the 1000 hour mark. That number will probably increase to about 10 FOs per month in three months from now. The company is upgrading 30+ per month. About 10 captains are leaving per month minimum, that number will probably increase overtime.
