Sounds like a screw job to me. Any other trade puts time of service above others. Electricians, etc, so why would a 1989 new hire be put behind a 2001 hire? I have no friends on either side of this, so take this as an outside look. I have nothing to gain from any outcome.
What you're advocating is not consistent with ALPA's guidelines for a merger. Both US and AMWest were ALPA. They Both agreed to binding arbitration. The system isn't perfect, but it's what all agreed to.
