No, I understand your point of view, and that of generations past where the time wasn't months, but years. But in the context of now since that's what we're dealing with, I can only assume that the increase in time is due to the larger numbers being hired now than in the previous 3-5 years. And that's probably linked to some degree to both the improved pay and introducing of the RTP.
It doesn't change the fact that quick time to get off reserve is one of (not the only) driving factors when choosing a regional.
Are these times expected to decrease once the Norfolk and Philly bases are fully online?
