Johnso29,
I just went back and found this footnote (16) under the arbitrators decision:
16 While we adopt the July date for purposes of Fleet count, we utilize the Seniority Lists of November 1,
2008, as representing the current pilot population.
That is copied and pasted from the award. This is why I was questioning whether the retirements had already been removed from the pre-merger NW list.
