I don’t think most will wait around, and I certainly wouldn’t blame any who left after a six month wait. I probably wouldn’t choose Republic if it meant losing seniority waiting on a ground school date. It’s important to remember many who have future ground school dates don’t currently meet 121 minimums. They have a COE pending meeting those hours.
Most at Republic are content because the QOL is good. Growth is nice, but upgrades are currently just above 2 years without growth. Now if Republic has zero growth over the next 12 months, then obviously it would not be good for junior FOs.
