I know that all of the 75 whale SOs will be "demoted to F/E captains...replaced by young, inexperienced pilots", in the words of Capt name withheld.
For me and the other 16 DC-8 SOs who are not demoted captains, do you think there is a chance we will be promoted to FO by the end of 2007 or is that 166 number including us too?
