We still have Jan class EJET FOs in TRN status. Feb was a small class and are currently in sim. The March class is starting sim next week. March was a bigger than normal class, so when they're done with IOE things should ease up a bit. There was also a bit of a training bottleneck. It is likely a culmination of these things triggered holdbacks to the CRJ, if true.

Dumb question: are SAT/AUS done from Dallas or Houston? Or from IAD? I have zero clue what Mesa's route structure is, though I guess I'll know more in a couple weeks.
