Further, to the extent that they lose seniority ... then the Silicon Valley case might be of some relevance.
They get their seniority number immediately, all the hold backs here are on the Delta seniority list while still flying here. In fact a few years ago, the long hold backs, served most if not all of their mainline probationary period while still at Mesaba. There were only a few of those though.
