I can't believe the detour this debate has taken. Surely the real question is one posed way back on page 1 and not followed up by anyone since - the question of a crew made up of one captain and two FOs and the very real possibility that in he event of a really serious emergency, (e.g., depressurisation, cabin smoke/fire), the captain might not be able to get back to the flight deck from the aft "cheap seats" crew rest areas our "eyes-always-on-the-bottom-line" management have decided is appropriate? (Or should I replace "is appropriate" with "will do"?)
