Man, this thread went to $h(#. I'm surprised that no one is talking about SEATS. American(LAA) can have 2 million pilots on their seniority list but if their butts aren't in seats when the music stops they are out of the game. It's all about the JOBS they bring to the table.
It's not right to steal another pilots job. A Captain in PHL should stay a Captain in PHL. A lineholder should stay a lineholder. APA's list conveniently ignored that logic.
