Most likely not. The issue is their current status which is short staffed creating the withholding. Upgrading to different equipment doesn't change the status that they are leaving. Another issue is one of a vacancy bid. In years past we consistently ran one a month, these days we may see a vacancy every 3-4 months. 2 bases and 2 stagnant fleets equals minimal upgrade opportunities.
