My post was not meant to be fodder for any arguments. I hold the time. I was invited to the interview as CQFO candidate and then offered a job as an FO because they said my 121 currency had lapsed. It not meant to make a point for anyone and perhaps they just made a mistake. My post is for the original poster and anyone else applying to be sure to confirm your status before you go. As a side note, I almost considered the FO position, their logic was sound, with the exception of a lot of what ifs. Good luck to all those in their individual pursuits. Mine may be an isolated case. Just check six guys.
