Your letter is incorrect. DOH was not and never has been ALPA merger policy. DOH was one factor among many areas that could be used in determining how to merge a seniority list. Many ALPA mergers did not go DOH. DAL-Western I can assure you did not go DOH as a former western pilot. Fences were never mentioned in the merger policy. The recent change you mention I believe occurred in 1991 if you consider 17 years recent. The change removed DOH as a consideration from many of the components of the merger policy. If DOH was ever the merger policy then you would not have had any negotiations for seniority list during that time frame. Thats not what happened. It was simply one consideration from a list of about 8 items that were supposed to be taken into consideration.
