I was also told from numerous reps that was the case. If you read the SSP it states that you must be a current CA.
Exactly. ALPA leaders lied at the roadshows to get this turd passed. Now leadership is saying that indeed as it was written in the LOA, you must be CURRENTLY a captain (or have an approved leave while as captain). Anyone downgrading will NO LONGER be a part of the SSP unless they return to a captain position. Similarly if anyone that was on leave as a captain comes back to the line but has to do so as fo, they then are no longer part of the SSP unless they get a captain position back.
