- Seniority will always stifle the natural operation of the market.
Thank you. I've said before that we really need to take a close look at what Seniority 'protects' in the 21st century aviation industry.

- The industry is living in fear of '89. He is staggered that given the duplicity and deceit showed by management in a range of different airlines, no major pilot group has taken significant industrial action.
Not so staggering -- '89 took its toll on a lot of people, but two groups are still players in the industry today - the AFAP, and the young pilots of that time that are now the senior pilots of today (whose horizontal movement into other companies is virtually nonexistant)

Your friend is smart. Thank you for the post.
