Regarding Delta's TA, I'm sure there will be a loop hole somewhere, saying the preferential hiring doesn't apply to Comair pilots.....

Good Luck,

The TA(which is not yet approved) would require this:

the Company will fill a minimum of 35% of the aggregate of all positions in Delta pilot new-hire classes in each trailing twelve month period (to the extent airmen are available) with ALPA-represented airmen at Delta Connection Carriers, subject to such airmen meeting the Company's competitive hiring standards, and subject to the Company's objectives for diversity and experience among newly hired pilots.
