I agree, they wouldn't have 27 guys in class, they would have 15ish.

Some guys might see a little bit more time off but I'd expect 7-14 days off between indoc and aircraft training. Could be more could be less but from what I've seen that seems to be the average.

Right now there are very few people bidding into the 737 and 320. Most all of that movement is switching bases. That means that every FO position in the sim on those two fleets is a new hire. CA training is backed up and so is wide body training and 756 BAT training, but those won't affect you.
