It’s not like being hired at US and having an interview lined up with DL. As you know, Airways and AA are currently two different roads that lead to the same job. Taking this into account I’ll take the first class I can get into which means by going to Airways I’m in class a month earlier than if I waited for AA. Also, commuting out of where I live is much easier on Airways than AA since BNA used to be an AA domicile and there are lots of AA pilots who still live here.
When talking about the SLI, there’s a long precedence for everyone who’s been hired after the snap shot being placed on the bottom based on DOH.
Yeah, OK. I wasn't sure what the chain of events was vis-a-vis the merger and newhires. It seems like you did the sane thing

I'll go back to coloring.
