Who needs bumps? I've talked to at least 3 guys who were awarded guppy FO in LAX and they aren't going to get trained in time, so they are going to bump into guppy Captain in LAX.
That's just in LAX. I'm not sure about the other bases, but I know its the same.
The "displacement" bumps are just going to be icing on the cake.

Good for them, thank god we got 14-11v to continue the idiocy when they can't be trained in time.
Maybe we should just give the whole airline displacement rights.

Its not about sounding "cool". Its tradition in aviation to give nicknames to airplanes. In some cases, each aircraft has its own individual name. Every heard of the "Enola Gay"?

This tradition can be a little hard for those current and former Barbie Jet types to accept.

Just because the NG Guppy has still has hub caps does not mean it is any less of a plane
