1. we dont have 12 year FOs and our pay scale only goes up to 4 years.

2. our contract was written and signed before a single jet over 50 seats was on property.

3. Almost the entire lynx group was hired after the most junior person on our list. So if given "date of hire" most would be at the bottom of the list regardless.

4. we have been told that 9 Lynx pilots (along with 27 midwest) have been hired and will be given "temporary seniority numbers (at the bottom)" until the SLI is complete and then have an "adjusted seniority number" when the arbitration is complete.
