Should a guy in indoc get everything before a guy with 17 years moving forward? The separate ops since 2007 have shown how f'ed up Nic was. The majority of what was left of US came from the east.
That said, I agree that a DOH list wasn't the answer to the problem.
From a pilot's perspective as it relates to the merging of seniority lists does it really matter if it was a purchase, merger or acquisition? it only matters to the person or pilot group that is trying to get an unfair advantage or unfair footing over the other pilot group.
You are forgetting that most if not all the damage that occurred to the US Airways pilots careers occurred before America West showed up.
