I haven't heard there is a shortage of Ejet FO's. If that was the case, why a longer wait on reserve? Are you saying the longer FO reserve is because of a Ejet captain slowdown?
The longer reserve time is because FOs were stockpiled so they would be ready for the delivieries, so guys in ORD can say they've been reserve a year etc but now that the planes are almost done delivering it should drop as staffing levels normalize. Think there's 10 deliveries or so between now and june
