Silberfuchs, you must notice yourself the irony when announcing the planned numbers as facts? Also I respectfully disagree with your altered 2011 statistic. Passed commands are those in 2011 and not beyond. ( or you substract those who started their course in 2010, see what I mean?)
The important thing now is in my opinion :
How do we live with the fact of a very very long time to upgrade?
I think it is about time to talk about increasing F/O yearly stages AND the subsequental transition to a higher entry level on the command pay scale.
