The DVR is what company wants for the next month. A pilot needing a training event will take three months to get where needed.
The reason why SLC guys were awarded ERJ transition was because company knew the base would grow in lines over the next months to need them.

upgrading to the junior base to wait for a transfer home is a gamble but the alternative setup would be displacements happening in the DVR monthly. Pick your poison. Displacement doesn’t really happen at OO like it does at other carriers.
