What's next - will they make us permanent FOs to save money?
I must say I am very surprised by the lack of comments to this outrageous policy change. I am guessing that this means bypassed/delayed/shafted FOs are busy on the keyboard writing our esteemed managers. Remember guys, even though you may not be one of the senior AB FOs that got pulled off an upgrade course, this new, but still not official change will mean that you are here for atleast 4 years before you upgrade!
