If it is even close to accurate, then that alone will keep a steady stream guaranteed for a while.
And what about cadet programs. With them getting first choice of assignments, I don’t know why they would go anywhere else, but do they have some kind of contract to come to Envoy?
RTP just recently celebrated its 100th graduate. There are maybe 100 in training now and who knows how many waiting to begin. Right now they are lucky to complete 4-5 each week. With all the issues at Coast and other Regionals opening up RTP programs I doubt this will grow much in the foreseeable future.
