The arbitrators should look at what pilots can hold, and those pilots should be placed with pilots holding the same equipment. So Captains merged together and FO’s merged together.

No. These two airlines are apples and oranges due to age. I would be #1 at VA but by choice am 50% FO at Alaska. I like how Kelly did it SWA.

That was in response to the premise that it won’t matter to anyone as long as you maintain you relative position. Those are two situations where it will matter. While I agree there is some unfairness that the number-1 VX CA isn’t going to be number-1 anymore, it is also unfair that the VX proposal puts guys on the SLI in spots where they barely had their first pubic hair when the guys around them on the seniority list were hired at Alaska.

Just get over it. The list will be out in 4 months and none of us can change how it comes out or what the result will be.

Actually there are a handful of pilots here at VX who basically skipped a step or two and got hired super young who are now very senior. It’s not fair in a sense, but pilots don’t hire pilots, and it would be more unfair to punish everyone below them on the list. There will be individual winners and losers, there always are. .. I’m also curious why Moose thinks he could have been #1 at Virgin. Did he have 10,000 hours and a bunch of Airbus PIC time in 2006?
