Agree not the same sense as the 727.. but if you are just holding on to the bottom of the seniority list in your seat.. Chances are you are going to get flushed off the bottom as the airline as a whole absorbs the 727 folks.
13-04 will be interesting as it will create vacancies that will have a somewhat mitigating effect on the excesses.
gonna be an interesting few weeks.
