ALPA EC stalls on AAA integration decision

Somebody on here once said, and I think this was flyover, that the only way to have a list merger is to, and I quote...

"...put both pilot groups into a field with a bunch of blunt objects. The last man standing is the number one guy on the list, and you go down the list in the order that people fell."

seagull, the list had the top 500+ guys all AAA. Therefore, the TOP percentages went in their favor. (IE, an AW CA in the 20%s might have dropped by 3 or 4 percent). Then the list went by a series of ratios so the lower 20% of AWA guys might have gained a few percent. Since it was based entirely of ACTIVE pilots the inactive furloughs were placed on the bottom of the list.

Depending on when we go to age 65, almost all of the top 500 will be gone in about 4-9 years.

Nope, not me. I think list integration can usually be worked out at something less than nuclear anhilation level. But this list integration we're talking about will probably be the nastiest we've ever seen.
