The question is not will they screw it up. It's how much.
They're at the point now that they don't want to train as many to 727 SO as are on the training letter. They know they will be training many back out before they spend a year in the seat. Some might go from 727 SO to narrow FO then back to MD11 FO HKG inside of 15 months.
FedEx training mantra - Save a few bucks now and spend three times as much later.

Business as usual. AFU. I wonder what happened to the secondaries? Intl cargo up 18%, buying more 777s, leaving freight behind everyday in Asia because of lack of lift. Have you seen the open time in ANC recently? And we have no secondaries. YGBFSM

I just had to pay to get the 4th stripe REMOVED.......Blue Electrical tape was beginning to look like a reasonable option. I was going to give my Capt's hat to our former MEC treasurer, but a recent ALPA role model told me he probably already had one since he saw one on his head in the magazine.
Reminds me of the LT that showed up at one day wearing a flight cap with solid silver piping because he thought it looked better.......he was known as LT GEN after that.
