Although it is possible, a large number of the current XJ MEC, LEC, and SLI positions are filled with pilots selected to flow. Most have stated they have no intention to take a position in the combined carrier. At least that's what they have stated. The only one that I have heard that is interested is TW. He's defiantly respected at XJ for his involvement in contract '04 and the BK. And I believe he worked closely with 9L in their organization. He also is not flowing, brings good contacts with national, and has a vested intrest, as a lifer here. If he throws his hat in the ring, I'm all for it.
