T...you have to think on this more. SWAPA's scope doesn't allow for ANY domestic flying to occur by anyone but a SWAPA seniority list pilot. That would mean our pilots would be flying over twice the amount of domestic flying we do now because we currently outsource over half of our domestic flying. That increase in flying would create such a massive wave of upgrades that nobody currently on our list would have to be on reserve unless they chose to be.

Be reasonable. I'll start posting Gator football pictures if you don't rethink your position!!
