Obviously we are not properly staffed for the summer otherwise we wouldn't be deferring deliveries that were already planned and should have already been staffed for, and we wouldn't be junior manning and calling LCAs to cover flights.
I agree we are somewhat over staffed on captains, which only makes the upgrade that much longer for the FOs already on property.

Why must we sit here and wait for PSA to reach rock bottom before we see the improvements that everyone (except D&D apparently) know they need to make?
