Actually, that's not true.
It specifically states that 1/3 of the New-Hire class at DAL will be from the 9E bridge agreement or
2013-2016 = 12
2017 = 15
2018 and beyond = 20
Whichever is less.
Then goes on to say that 2/3 of that 9E group will be from the Bridge agreement (seniority order) and 1/3 can be from any eligible 9E pilot interviewed out of seniority order.
And it even states that these numbers are apart from any other flow agreement, ie XJ or Compass.
