Let me go on the record and suggest a staple-job for American, ALA what they did to TWA. They are bankrupt, right? So was TWA - see, it works perfect. I'm kidding.
In reality, I would assume a relative seniority type of arrangement would be the likely outcome (via binding arbitration after we all beat each other up) and the end decision would be something like the DAL-NWA integration.
I guess a lot depends on if it's an outright acquisition of the whole outfit, or a partial acquisition of assets, if those assets rise to fragmentation thresholds, if AMR would be in Ch7, and on and on.
Frankly I hope it's just assets. No ill will towards any AMR pilots, but I doubt and whole airline deal would go through without having to shed assets, and the assets we likely want ORD-DFW would likely be fenced AMR bases and the shedding would come out of the DAL side of the house with possible massive DAL furloughs
