Not even close. 3 E195’s are active in the fleet and all three will be flying tomorrow’s flights. 5 E190’s have been delivered to date, with #6 getting ready to be delivered to the US any day now. The first 190 to enter service will be flying up to ISP any day now to start conformity with the FAA as well.
the A220’s don’t start deliveries until October. Won’t be on the line until after new year sometime. So 220 training won’t realistically start until sometime in late fall if I had to guess.
My opinion is that Everything now is for a pilot pool unless they have to run another Ejet class between now and the fall.
