Also, who cares what airplanes the company buys, fly the airplane that fits your butt. The company spends the same amount of money on pilot payroll and buys the correct airplane for their mission and doesn't have to figure in the pilot Drama.
Of course, this would be a big change for ALPA and it wouldn't fit into their Pattern Bargining scheme so it will never be discussed.
Stay the Course and hold the line!
You forgot to mention the ill-conceived "National Seniority List". That sits on top of the trash heap of bad ideas.
