Munchkin,
It is my understanding that since the 49ers were fired, pilots within CX have accepted upgrades (S/O to F/O, F/O to Command) to fill some, if not all the vacancies. I also understand that CX has a short term need of some 200 pilots.
How do you explain existing crew accepting upgrades whilst at the same time trying to exert pressure on potential new hires not to accept a job, to support a cause you folk don't seem to be making sacrifices for yourselves?
