At the time it only impacted our pay (6-8 week delay each year in longevity steps), but since we were all in the same boat it didn't have any effect on seniority. Now it does matter. That's 6-8 weeks for each pilot in the combined group.
So, if they use the dates on your checkride date, THAT would change your seniority order at 9E?
