Why do we need 43 more captains that FO's, and why are they putting themselves 4 FO's short of what they say they need? Does anyone ever even try to use their head over in the GO?
My guess this is to leave room for captains being displaced into the FO seat, I would guess the the bottom 20 or so FO's on the 7/9 are going to be displaced to the 50 seater...just a guess
