This cannot be true and USAPA must believe that there are three lists (meaning separate lists of pilots flying East aircraft), so the East/West snapshot SHOULD be taken in 2005.
According to one pilot here, he is a "third-lister" and confirms he is NOT an East pilot and another third-lister here unequivocally states in response to my replies to the first pilot that as of now (2014), there are two seniority lists on the East side. Even R57, probably the most fervent and supposedly knowledgeable Usapain here, has taken issue of my failure to understand that first third-list pilots explanation of why he isn't an East pilot.
That's 2 separate third-listers and the APC poobah of USAPA all confirming the existence of a completely separate list of pilots flying East aircraft who AREN'T "East" pilots. Of course, this all continues to be explained to me using Usapian logic and I've never understood that logic, but by what they are saying, since there are separate lists on the East and pilots on one of those lists ARE NOT East pilots, it would only make sense they should be considered separately in the SLI. If they were all on one seniority list and all considered "East" pilots, then I can see why they might be considered as one at a later snapshot point.
