After reading and researching the lastest, I think that this should be done. If we say CX needs to lay off 250 pilot's, this would include all DEC's and most if not all COS 08 pilot's. What this would force is that any future commands(They said this themselves) and any further promotions whether SO to JFO or JFO to FO etc,.. WOULD HAVE TO GO BY PURE SENIORITY.
I think this should be taken seriously. This would alleviate a lot of problems as mentioned above. Another one would be the BPP issue for S/Os, as the majority of DEFOs would be gone.
