That's exactly why so many mergers end up in p!ssing contests. NWA 787 orders turned in and used to buy 777's at a discounted rate, and you say they should go to Delta pilots. Of course you'd feel exactly the same if DAL were to decide to turn in some of their 777 orders and use them to buy 787's at a discounted rate...right? You would say: "I'd say NWA because they were getting the 787's anyway."
