He is right, the first FO in Scoot, Mr. "spiky hair", is still and FO and probably will always be, at least in Scoot. His chances were slim with former chief pilot, now with the new chief pilot and his gang probably no chance at all.
Command in Scoot does not necessarily comes for the best but for the closer to management, for instance, the flying skills of all the local guys that got promoted on first batch was more than questionable however they got the left seat based on political reason, promotion of local talent, if I remember correct.
