You know, with all the internet hero's posting how it should be.....none of it matters! You can sound like an immature, selfish a-hole, but it just doesn't matter.
Unless you are a member of your respective Merger Committee, you have ZERO ability to affect the outcome of the SLI. Sure, you can voice your opinion to the Merger Committee; however, they are in no way bound to listen to you or do what you want. So, since you can't control the outcome, don't worry about it. It will shake out however it shakes out....you then can choose to stay or leave. Also, your seat will be your seat after the SLI, we have no bump and flush abilities. The only way to move between seats/ certs is via a vacancy bid. So none of this really matters in the grand scheme of things.
And for the record, I fully support whatever is best for the ENTIRE ~3,000 pilots of our combined company...not what is good for me or my friends. At some point, a pilot group has to do what's right, not what's necessarily good for the individual in regards to SLI's.
