You mean 500 DAL pilots exercising their seniority? Just like the other 12000 DAL pilots who will get to exercise theirs on any AE's as well. Do not forget that a commuter is probably more likely to continue to commute to chase an acft or dollar. I'd also question how many would drive 150 miles vs. commute to a higher paying piece of equipment in another base. At what distance does the commute not become less practical. I'd venture at less than 100.
