Fact is that some who whinge the most

- had the chance to get off the Jumbo but gambled with the "imminent -8i order" and stayed on it (or her)

- took an early freighter command knowing what freighters rosters would be like

- had the choice as JFOs to get onto another type but remained on it

Sometimes these gambles work out and sometimes they don't - respect to the members of the Jumbo community for their (industrial) efforts and trying to get a real seniorty system going. None of the 330 guys were able to create that sort of momentum 8 years ago.

It is quite ironic though that these same pilots who didn't care or showed ZERO sympathy in regards to the happenings on the regional fleet(s) are now crying poor and demand a seniority system.
