Default AA New York base now and after merger

I'm sure there will be many different opinions on this but wanted to see if anyone has insight on this. How many AA pilots are based in NY now ad a standalone airline, and how many will be based in NY AFTER the merger, as a combined airline, even taking into consideration the LGA divestitures?

I'd imagine a lot of the cutting in both DCA and LGA will affect the contract RJ flying more than mainline.

The company has flatly stated that there will be virtually zero change to combined mainline service levels at both airports, with RJ-operated flights taking the brunt of the hits. As such, one would expect the size of the domiciles to remain relatively stable. Both US and AA have DCA bases, while only AA has an NYC base (covering all three airports).

Thanks. Does anyone have actual numbers on the amount of pilots based in NYC? And percentage of the company that is? And ny being junior, how long to be top 40 percent in say 737 f/o ny? Obviously waiting till recall is mandatory ( 2 more years) will allow for more seniority, but then tons of senior guys accept recall at once moving everyone down? I guess what I'm asking is do people bail out of ny small equipment as quickly as they did back in the good old days?
