Once new LCA’s hit the flight deck, hopefully it will go down to 3 months and go down quickly.

To be clear, you believe that every single class - for the rest of forever, in perpetuity - will be on a 5 month footprint because your one friend had holiday and covid delays.
I just want to make sure I’m understanding you here.

Everyone in my class says that Republic gave them the earliest class date compared to other regionals. Some as soon as two weeks after their interview. We were just notified of a nine day delay after GOS and before ETHOS, but it’s still a very tight training footprint.
