Oh really? Your impeccable logic has worked wonders in merging the NWA and DL mainline senority lists... in fact does anyone know how that actually played out.
If.... and its a huge if... comair and mesaba merged I guarantee it would not be a DOH merger. More than half of mesabas pilots, including a number of captains would go to reserve/highspeed/furloughed FO in an instant. The good news would be for all of the 2+ year fo's at Comair.... congradulations you finally get to upgrade! You can see where the problems begin to arise.
