Say again? Nobody was stapled, and no one (except top, top XJ guys) made out like fat cats.
I do not believe I have "hundreds of more senior XJ FOs" stapled to the list below me.
I would love to see our list with each individual pilot's DOH. Until then, I cannot tell who is reallly screwed. Keep in mind, if you are a XJ FO who is number 200 on the Mesaba list, you are considered the first category for purposes of the list award. It doesn't matter what your physical seat is today, you still fall on the award where your number is. For example, the first 272 XJ pilots are in the first category, and that is the first 272 XJ pilots on the XJ list, regardless of what seat/position they actually hold. It goes from XJ DOH #1 to #272. If you were a XJ FO, number 200 on the XJ seniority list, you are in category 1 of this award. The next group, group two, has the next 88 Mesaba pilots on the list, regardless of seat/position.
Let me ask this, the first 2xxx XJ pilot is number 2001, a "M1800." Care to share what the DOH was for this XJ pilot? What base, seat, and equipment is this individual on?
