Quote: I'm not a lawyer but the opinion says that it reverses the district court ruling on the DFR lawsuit. Does this also mean the Nic is implemented as well?
This does not mean the Nic is implemented but this is an unusually strong opinion from a federal appeals court. USAPA got hammered hard.
The court did not order the arbitrators to use the Nic award but they gave that seniority award about as strong an endorsement as possible.
I'd say it's about a 99.47% probability the Nic will be used to build the AA seniority list.
The USAir east pilots just lost big.
