What about upgrades? Captain reserves are getting used all the time, FOs, not so much.
It’s about time to move some of that senior FO deadwood over to the left seat so I don’t have to sit reserve any more in my second year...

It was more a question of any rumors on upgrade classes? It's hard to believe with the captain reserve utilization they aren't running any classes.

Look for the same again with PBS.

The stagnation will come to an end at F9 shortly.
