Won't be the first time. A few years ago a LCAL 777 captain was greeted by 3 smiling probationary FOs for his long flight to wherever. His "input" to the company led to a minor investigation into the issue of why more senior pilots weren't upgrading into heavier equipment. They didn't like the answer--lousy workrules, particularly on reserve (obvious to line pilots, not to the negotiating committee or the company). While they fumbled with plans to fix it (why? the company type rated them. Aren't they fully qualified?) the industry tanked again, they furloughed 200, and that solved the problem.
