Don't want to be a doomsday nay sayer but do you honestly believe there will be "one" pilot group so long as a Captain and FO sit down in the flight deck, the FO 3 years more senior than his captain?

I'm not even touching CRM in the odd case the captain says the wrong word and opens this Pandora box. Think that didn't happen already? It did.

You guys need to stop with the koombayah. This won't be solved in a pacifying manner - this will prolly be another USAir in the making unless the company goes bankrupt in the process and closes doors or unless someone in the union will feel its time to remedy what was done wrong.
