Appartently you didn't read all the msgs. Some people feel like hanging out at a dying airline and want to be entitled to a job at a major without PIC time. Just because someone is an FO at OH for 6 to 9 yrs doesn't entitle them to be at a major, nor should they just sit and watch the world go by with out them. My point is, a person that stays at an airline where there is more downgrades than upgrades, may want to move on. Go to GL or Silver or what ever, put in 3 to 4 yrs, move to a major and be done with being a lifetime RJ FO. Or they can stay there and rot away for 15 yrs until they upgrade, then rot away for another 20 yrs till they die. Its an easy choice.
