THanks
This is what I was thinking.

Delta does contract maintenance or some kind of check for HAL. It's been going on for at least a year.

Wouldn't be strange, but HAL doesn't serve MSP.
HAL contracts some of their heavy maintenance to us.

Delta, Hawaiian Airlines forge maintenance pact - USATODAY.com

I believe DAL does contract mx for HAL. I'll see if I can verify that.

So does the HA-DAL merger look like the best case scenario in possible merger scenarios?

(Obviously I'm looking at it from a pilot SLI perspective)

I'm thinking in terms of merger possibilities HA looks like the most likely with ALK as a distant second based on company valuation.

Any other possible merger scenarios come to mind?

I'm still hoping we can steal LCC from AMR... It would add a little spice to our bland forum, and this here L&G.

It would be worth it just to see the DALPA sell job spin on why it would be "good" for us.

I guess some people will do anything to get to play with other people's bungholes, and some people will do anything for a drink.

I make this observation relative to that fraternity, not our management and pilots...
