So it actually was about the aeroplane he went to then. The principle of whether he went to the 737 or 747 is identical. He was still being appointed in a management role to a fleet that wouldn’t have been attained on straight seniority post 767 RIN- though he could have attained 737 command in Sydney had he jumped in 2013 I think. The angst was just the fact that it was the 747 and the number of seniority numbers that. So not the principle, but the fleet/ size of seniority numbers.
I’d still argue that virtually every pilot in an identical situation would have done the same thing.
Time’s short for me at the moment. I’ll re-visit tomorrow.
