"Stapleing" a relatively senior, voluntary furloughee to the bottom of a combined list likely would violate that requirement.

However, there is no requirement that they all be considered the same. That will be argued. They just can't be reordered.
Yes, I think for the purposes of SLI a "furlough" means an "involuntary furlough." Voluntary furloughs will be integrated as if on property.

That makes perfect sense.......BUT how do you explain those who were "Voluntary Furloughs" at the time they departed property, then after they left on voluntary status, may have become "True Furloughs" (IE- The Furlough G-Line moved "North" after such time as when they left "Voluntarily", and if they would have stuck around, the would have been involuntary)???

All the more reasons that SOTeric's question ^^^above^^^ can not be treated with a "broad-brush" answer.

But that's just my opinion. And that's worth nothing to most people.
To be clear.....
On the CAL SL, they are very few Pilots who have a 2004 date. Almost the entire swell referred to above would have been the wave beginning Spring 2005, or later.

Yes, I think broad brushes are notably absent from the room where arbitrators work an SLI.

In looking at the "7 layer dip" that the Tri-Panel used in the DAL/NWA SLI construction, I would say, "True Statement".

Soooooooo.... riddle me this:

Since I am a junior UAL involuntary furlough, but have taken the opportunity to go to CAL, I am "active" on CAL's list right? And if I am "active", once the ISL is put together, all the senior folks still on furlough ('cause they weren't recalled- i.e. NOT active) are going to be junior to me because I am active???

SWEET!!!

Or does some sort of "snapshot" come into play, and when/ which snapshot?.....

For the Merger Committee's to "argue", and for the Tri-Panel to decide.

-Interesting. Were you required to give up your old United seniority number when you went over to CAL? Y'all must have had some kind of agreement as to what your "seniority status" would be for purposes of the upcoming ISSL.

From what I was briefed, those who took the CAL job are still on the UAL list and by by-laws you cannot jump ahead of those that are senior to you on your own list. That would indicate that when the list is done, you will be in the same grouping as before the list was put together.

Not a chance.

The key word you use is "recalled." You are not recalled and no one at sUAL has been recalled as you and they can only be recalled to sUAL.

What you suggest is why sUAL pilots at sCAL insist on being called "new hires" not "recalls."

At one time I was a bit foggy on this issue but because of your post I can now see why the distinction is so important.
