shmoo, mate, you're banging your head against a brick wall. Fair or not, its done. Maybe it will change in the next EBA, maybe it wont. Im sure you'll be an advocate of change. As will I. My point is, from the guys and gals who were named on the list, up until those cadets who start until the the new EBA commences, all will have, and will keep, the seniority from LOA161.
Some of these guys have slots coming up, some are already FO's....its not gonna change. Perhaps our efforts could be better spent focussing on making sure us as SO's dont get screwed again in some other way in the next EBA.
