I personally think the NW pilots' "punishment" does not fit the "crime". But that isn't the point of this thread.
From what I have been able to figure out, the pilots' ATP certs have been revoked. What that means is that they need to take writtens and checkrides to get their certificates back. I just learned that prior hours count so after the one year mandatory period, they could have their ATP's back in a very short period of time.
My question is this. If they had CFI certificates and various ground instructor certificates, would they still be valid? I know they couldn't exercise the privileges of their CFI's without a current Commercial Cert, but after their revocation was up, would they have to take the CFI ride again? I think not, but not sure.
Also, could they exercise their ground instructor privileges while their pilot certs were revoked?
Inquiring minds and all that.
