Yeah, I agree they were beating Ejet FO’s up a few months ago. I see less of it today. Ask your Ejet FO what their awarded line was out of PBS.

Over the summer, the company increased the ranks of Ejet FO’s - yet, they have basically the same number of CA’s with more planes. Training is backed up because of an idiotic decision by the training department or we would have even more FO’s online now.

My concern for CA’s is they are both extremely marketable and unhappy right now. With each unhappy CA that leaves, without the company resolving the shortage and yet increasing the aircraft at the same time, puts more workload on the remaining CA’s.
