Delta position was in print from the MEC chairman and posted here. It was a relative seniority position list. The opener not the final list had every pilot with 1/2 percent of his pre merger seniority. There were two extremes most rational people would have considered for openers. A ratio and DOH. Delta went with the ratio. NWA went with something from another universe. This is the rumor and my rep told me it was very close to factual. The first 1000 slots for NWA. 30 Delta pilots integrated by ratio into the next 1000 slots. A ratio after that with almost 2000 Delta pilots ending up on the bottom. I noticed in the NWA chairmans letter he made no attempt to explain his ratio system. The DALPA chairman did. Perhaps he did not want to address it because he knows he could not defend it.
