Not from where I'm sitting it doesn't. As a Jr SWA FO, I'd get a small boost in seniority on DOH, but have a bunch of younger guys injected into the system above me who will change the demographics of the entire list above me.

If I ever make Captain, I'll never get off reserve as all those younger dudes will never retire.

You must be looking at the top guys only. Who cares what happens to the most senior capt's (on either side). Somehow they always seem to do well no matter what.

Pretty reasonable stuff so far. Forgot To Bid was supposed to participate as well, but he is MIA so far.
The NO BUMP/NO FLUSH thing probably would work well.

He's warming up. He typically hits his stride some time after midnight, Clamp Show style.

I google searched for "southwest cheerleader" and this was on there. I'm okay with this merger.

History lesson :

The very early FedEx folks all had to buy Falcon DA20 ratings....stopped in late 1970's. 4500 subsequent hires resulted in no paybacks to the early guys.

The late 1980's purchase/merger of Flying Tiger, and the subsequent SLI arbitration didn't even mention pay-for-training.

Good luck to all......

Wow, thats one big picture 80. Hey, maybe we can have like a PM between 80 and I about picture findings and that way thats your drift to keep this in the majors.

80, I was looking, we need a good pic of a roving band of marauders that tip over trash cans on other threads. Looking for a good class picture right now, but this will have to do as just a civilized discussion we're having right now:



Now LJ, I can't be on the computer all day. I even have limits. So I missed my opportune moment to post every 5th post and I really feel awful. I know 80 came through in a big big big way. I would like to extend my apologies by offering everyone Octoberfest:
