More like 154 guys bolting....

Let's see.. pretty senior pilots now sitting reserve sideways on the diesel eight doing boring domestic stuff. Not quite as exciting as international Captain stuff, and you've got all the doom and gloom at the Looneytoon sort every evening.

The real questionis, how is the company going to MANAGE the exodus once the ink is dry on a TA? You can't suddenly hire 160 FEs. That's why they've decided to overstaff the position for the past three years?

I agree, as a sideways sitter on the 8 myself, I only hope they realize this. DC-8 S/O training takes over 2 months.
