It would be an interesting process... however we sort of have that seniority structure to an extent already from the 320(ish) through the 777. There would be a reasonably significant training church for at least a bit as it sorts itself out to be certain.

I do agree that it would cost jobs in the long run... a comparison with UPS's data would be helpful as to their training events and movement to get a grasp on how much. I believe something comparable to UA's system would be a better balance. Oh, and by the way... UA has far less penalizing fences for any move compared to us. We have among the most stringent fences in the industry. Most people seem to ignore that or not be aware of it.

330's coming in are direct 744 replacements, and it's a 777 sized airplane. You can thank the Harwood and gang in their JCBA seniority posturing for that idiotic move (we got the seniority list we were going to get anyways..). The 350 fits in that category as well. Dropping those into the top scale significantly increases our % of top pay rate pilots.
