On the flip side what do you use to gauge WB CA seniority? Do you use the LAA years of service or the much more favorable AWA number? It is difficult to give accurate answers when the seniority list is a culmination of multiple mergers.
I understand, hopefully I didn’t come across as a dick. I think like Al said, for now, it’s a bit nebulous. In 6 years (assuming a static model) it will be one number…about 15 years. It will then drop for a few years, stabilize and then climb back up to 20 to 30 years, once we have a bunch of young pilots holding it. Sweet spot will likely be 2018-2021hires will hold it quickest…pure guess on my part though. After the late 2022 hires hold it, the time to hold it will rise because we hired som many last year. All based on a static model and mental math, usual caveats apply…
