I have no idea what those are. In out years there would be no reason (leverage) to allow any more. This gets rid of DCI SEATS and pilots. In the future, they will have nothing to trade.

It really is a simple argument we are all having. I think everybody believes the 50s will die on their own. I have said that for a long time as well. The disagreement is about how long it will take and whether or not it is worthwhile to accelerate that process. You and gloopy believe it is OK to wait. Others believe that is a waste of an opportunity. I fall into the second camp. The funny thing is that it won't affect me at all either way. It is a junior pilot's problem. You want to wait, that's fine with me. It is nothing remotely approaching a poison pill for me though.
