Oh the irony...
It sounds a bit like;
- the JPC sold this 'great opportunity' to their guys/gals to preserve the existing seniority list,
- without any guarantee that the company could name any criteria it wanted,
- in order to restrict movement/promotion to the new types from existing staff,
- and that some J* pilots might be realising that this flying was never meant for...,
- the few of their own group who actually want to do what is shaping up to be many nights spent away for less pay than their narrow-body contract.
Only time will tell....
