I work at RAH. I think you should keep your seat, base, and position. For a time. Eventually, via a fence, RAH pilots should be able to bid that. It's only fair. I'm sure you read the letter from your union stating that, you either accept what happens with integration, or maybe not have a job at all. I believe they also said that without this rescue from BK, that you would be unemployed. Just step back and think. I know you want everything to stay the same for yourself, but you gotta give up something if your being saved from not having a job at all. Like I said before, I think it would work best for everyone if there were a fence involved for a set amount of time, but not very long. You must remember that our contract protects us and you of this happens from us being whipsawed against eachother. We have to work together as one pilot group to make this work.
