Yeah he just pulled that out of his you know what. There are plenty of WBFOs who got assigned it out of indoc or bid it before they started getting senior who can't bid NBCA (right now).

The reality is that a lot of fence sitters, predominantly NBFOs, who are now bidding NBCA because they assumed that there were always going to be open slots. I think this a return to normalcy and a 3-5+ year wait is a very good general estimate of what the upgrade picture will look like.
