I'm not disagreeing with you, but ORF had one FO leave for upgrade in October (staffing date 11/1/06) and he has been here over 3 years. And he was the most junior CA in that upgrade class.

I think you saw upgrade drop because of the furloughs and lack of hiring the company did back 3+ years ago. There were a lot of classes in 2004 and on, however and it will take them longer to work their way thru those folks.

Do you have a hire date for the most junior CA awarded upgrade w/ staffing date of 12/1/06?
