IOW, if the 74A's are capped at 25 and 26 74A's put in their papers, boom the program is over and 25 guys retired early.
That said, I think it will make it down to whatever seniority meets the requirements.
I don't think you are correct. If they are offering 25 retirements on the 744 and 26 want it, only 25 744 pilots get to go and then they move on to the 777, 767 etc. If you are senior in your category, even the DC-9, you could get in on the deal.
