I'm for whatever my merger committee is for. To that end, I've done as they requested and not proposed anything on line to be used by the opposing merger committee in the SLI process--other that to propose using integration by W-2 which is anathema to AAI pilots just as much as relative seniority is to SWA pilots.

To me, this forum is like a seesaw of public opinion. My goal is to ensure the "relative seniority" position goes verbally unopposed by a silent opposition. I expect that both sidess have very firm opinions and I won't change the other side. Just want them to know that the other side is just as firm and won't be rolling over. Plus, there's a little gremlin in me that enjoys striking a chord every now and then.
