certainly beware the precedent in EVERYTHING however....the intel is that this FSO will be killed off - the only a/c really at risk (and the a/c in the incident which was the precipe for the FSO in the first place) is the 330-200...... 8 x doors and 8 x crew.
Info from the Mrs: I'm told that the routes flown and the nature the cabin service requirements (36 J) will result in a more sensible allocation of the additional crew member in the cabin.
In the meantime until the FSO is pulled, I'm sure there wouldn't be anything "extraordinary" enough that would not warrant waiting for a replacement CC to pax in.
SO pls remain in your seat.
