I don't see Parker starting WW III with APA or AA pilots by hijacking our seniority list as a gift wrapped present to regional pilots.
It's an enticing thought though, I'm sure. Any such deal will require agreement and quite frankly, considering the past failures of Letter 3 along with multiple arbitrations to resolve disputes, I don't think Parker want to open that can of worms all over again....at least not in the near future.
I think it's more realistic to plan for another scenario absent APA agreement to this one.
Yes...... It's just going to be interesting.
