Those folks would be fine in a single list. But, a huge portion of our pilot group has been on property for 2 years (me, too).
This has been belabored here a few times. Besides the fact that the SkW pilot group gives no indication to want to merge with anybody, the bigger overriding concern will continue to be getting a union jammed down our throats that neither we, nor management, wants.
Their agreement also says that on the 5th aircraft that gets transferred to SkyWest, they must take 5 crews with them and integrate them into the SkyWest seniority list. And it is a reciprocal agreement. You can thank ASA and the years of negotiation from your management for that one.
And why only 4 are moved at a time (I don't think we've transferred any since Brad Holt was moved to ASA).
Our management got ASA after several years of negotiating with Delta. Guess you can thank them, too.
