About the same, from what I've seen. But, who cares I'll be a greeter at WalMar by then

Not ONCE did the SLI go to an arbitrator, and I do believe that all the pilots in the prior airlines all did rather well in their career. That is what I and most other DAL guys want for all of us--NWA guys included!
Agree, the only thing I can think of is our size. Those guys weren't 70% Delta's size.
