a single vacancy yes. I hunted through several bids to find a situation where dozens were awarded. It wasn’t an exhaustive search but it smoothed things out a but.
i think those numbers are probably representative of post 2023 norms. Reserve is decent and they aren’t hiring 20% of the airline in 1 year
