All upward movement is good.
I agree, this AE is very small. However almost all of the openings are in the left seat. Does anyone really think they won't fill the B seats that are vacated as folks move up.
Read the memo on DLNET. We're still waiting for the network guys and the MBAs to decide which way we'll go for next summer before we really start to do anything. I think this bid is positive with 86 more openings than displacements and while I don't want to put too much sunshine on your doom and gloom parade, WB A positions generate the most training events and as folks move up they'll have to replace some of them. The largest category to lose folks to the RMA was the 7ERA and they didn't take the opportunity to further shrink the ATL 767 category.
For all of your ulcers' sakes, lighten up! For the record, I was a no voter.
