Shows the shortage for 11B as 178, though I don't know the link will work.

What I'm more curious about, what's with the immense shortages from the 2005/6 year groups, particularly in 11M and 11F? Is that just reflecting the fact that UPT + FTU takes a while or did they just not create any for those year groups? I mean, we can't be short 414 heavy copilots can we? Granted, I can't see how a 2006 guy could be at a unit yet but I'm clearly not understanding how they come up with the numbers.

If you do the math for a 15 year guy, it's a fair chunk of change.
