If they’re not getting displaced they’re going to have a hard time getting a vacancy even if they are super senior.

Besides recurrent and transition training I don’t see much training in our future. How many instructors do we have between pilot and FA? What about at our 3 regionals? Pilot and FA recruitment/hiring department? I would bet those are the positions the article addresses.
