I don't know, but 827 PAA pilots got jobs with United and I flew with a lot of them who got DOH. I also flew with a lot of rEAL, Midway and Spirit pilots among others who United ALPA worked to get preferential interviews/hiring, and they made our pilot group better. United ALPA has a strong culture of helping fellow ALPA pilots who need a 'lifeboat' as you say.
