My hope is that the company realizes manning the FDAs with 2.5 year senior Capts (I know that many think that there are people here from day one that can be a widebody Capt anywhere, and there are. But I think the company would rather have it more senior.) and newhires is not in their best interest. They cancel the bid, and revisit the LOA. If that happens, I take back all the bad mouthing (albeit mostly under my breath and too my wife) I made about the MEC, BC, and DW.
