The ERJ side is getting 90 upgrades in the bid that just closed. It'll depend on how many FOs that had bypassed decide to upgrade this time before the CRJ guys get to bid over. After that, it's anyone's guess.

Time will tell if XJT can someday boast a sub-10 year upgrade.

The 90 upgrades and CRJ pilots bidding over to the ERJ side doesn't have to happen all at once. There is about 15 months before the CRJ Delcon operation ceases. That's more than enough time even if you include new hires and additional upgrades.
