Flexjet formed a sli committee and so did fo. Then they both worked very hard to come up with a list that was as fair as could be. When KR moved fo pilots over to flex he placed them at the bottom of their list now they have two seniority list numbers. He also made them captains on Gulfstream's and Challenger's thereby buying no votes for the Union vote. The joint committee decided to use longevity with your prospective company in merging the two lists. They also made a provision for those pilots to choose which list they wanted to use. The judge found it to be fair and even stated in his brief that it was surprising that the Flex pilots made out slightly better than the FO pilots. However if the company accepted it it started a 9 month clock towards a joint CBA. After that it goes to arbitration.
