Well, I guess I was not the only one sharing this sad news. So the big question is if they are downgrading 22 Captains to FO slot, what will happen to the 22 FO already in that slot. I hate to think of it but I feel the F_ word coming in a few months. Best of Luck

P/S Does any one have a FO Hat and Epaulet. I guess I will have to call the new hire FO to get my items back

Got a couple phone calls just now in confirmation. The downgrades were confirmed, and i heard the F word put out there also from one of the two sources....

Trans States however has seemed to be a spyhole for things to come....we'll see if it plays true this time also....best of luck to all of us....and to everyone else effected...at this company, and others.

I still think there is something going on.
I think it will not make any sense when it starts happening.
and it would still not surprise me if more flying showed up and now we will not be staffed for it.
It is either the crappy chilli I just ate, or my gut feeling, but this whole thing is not sitting right with me. Not just the fact people are getting downgraded, and of course that is bad, but my gut feeling is going on beyond that.
