I get that it is a 365 conversion bid and that some might find their way to the DTW 717 on the next AE, but many junior will be subject to possibly two training cycles. The really junior FO's might have no where to go but ATL 717, but I see most A's MD'ing to WB FO which will then waterfall displacements throughout the system as junior WB FO's MD into lower paying categories.

The only caveat I see to that is if the company decides to have a commensurate number of DTW WB vacancies or hold an excess in those categories.
