I'd guess a % integration with fences so that F9 pilots couldn't bid out and RAH pilots couldn't bid in.
Don't be so certain TD. If it comes down to arbitration, it will be hard to argue that it shouldn't happen due to the huge differences in equipment, pay, & QOL. At this time RAH flys nothing larger then an E175, & the pay differences are huge. Just because RAH may buy F9 does not mean F9 pilots go on bottom. Overall earnings(including retirement) @ F9 are far better then at RAH. Be careful not to set yourself up for huge disappontment.
