All-in-all, I saw the FCIF as simply stating facts (weak economy, over manned, 3-man to 2-man airplane transition, age 65, etc.).

Flight management is usually hesitant to put that sort of stuff in writing (I suspect for liability reasons?). I appreciated the straight forward professional tone of the FCIF.
