Even if you sit reserve for 5 months you'll still be building hours at Commutair before you even have a chance to sit reserve at another regional.
The real killer is going to be the guys that drop from CA pay back down to FO pay after the LOA expires in December.
Not true at EDV. My intel shows that we're starting weekly classes of around 12 pilots per class, first one is August 5...growing in anticipation of new aircraft coming this fall. 45-50 pilots per month September through mid-2020.
