Default 1,000 turbine

Anyone think this will go away after the new year? Everyone else is dropping this requirement, or at least lowering it. Have class numbers dropped due to the requirement? Hoping it drops so those of us that want to work there get on faster.

From what the CP has said it’s unlikely to change.
