The F9 pilots are flying for a PROFITABLE company on airframes RAH will want to keep in service. It gives them a whole lot more bargaining power, as it should. F9's current operations should be fenced off from RAH pilots and vice versa, but the lists need to merged. The danger of not having one list is too great to ignore. I understand F9 pilots may be too proud to be on a "regional" airline seniority list, but the whipsaw possibilities are endless if they are run with two lists, or more with lynx.
