Exactly. That's why the "pay issue" is a red herring SWA pilots are using to justify their desire to staple the AAI pilots.

The fairest way to do this is to put all the Pre-1992 SWA guys on the list and ratio the rest.

Period, end of story. No seniority windfalls. Pay differential is a non-starter.

Let's hope all these pilots, unlike USAir Easties, stick to their agreement to abide by the arbitrator's decision.
