Republic will split like a watermelon
United will buy from them around 50 170s and get 500 pilots along with it ( right thing to do )
Then staple them on the bottom of the SL (ALPA will have no issue) and start putting another 75 190s on that certificate and all new hires will go there along with other narrow bodies ( flying the UAL CBA)
A nice certificate no proving runs etc
Watch it happening

Takeaways:
1. Delta has the smartest management out there.
2. Republic's management is self serving.
Though it all seems so random at the moment, when it all unfolds, if you refer to those two points, it will all make sense

There's no way in hell that could possibly happen. If UAL did buy the planes they'd have no problem getting a program up and running pretty quickly. They've kinda been flying jets for a while and maybe have an idea of what they're doing. The pilots would have to interview and get hired just like everyone else.
If you read up on airline history, you'll find that getting the pilots with the planes is a big priority for ALPA. After they didn't place braniff pilots at eastern when eastern bought out the Latin American routes, ALPA realized the mistake in their ways and made it a priority since.
Obviously RAH are teamsters, but I think the United ALPA wouldn't throw all those pilots under the bus.
Also, the situation you're responding to (however unlikely) has never happened before. A major has not bought out any regional and absorbed its equipment, so to say that the pilots will all be SOL in this proposed scenario is not accurate. No one knows how that would turn out.
