To answer your question:
They would determine how many 73 capt positions you bring to the merge.
They would determine how many 73 fo positions you bring to the merge.
They would determine what category this falls into. For example, using the DL/NW logic we would call everything in the system below 757 a narrow body and thus equal to the 73.
They would count the number of New Delta narrow body capt and fo positions.
We will take a totally fictional example.
Alaska Capt 100 New Delta Narrow body Capt 2500
Alaska FO 150 New Delta Narrow body Fo 5000
Ratio 100/2500 = 1/25
Ratio 150/5000 = 1/33.33333
Find the basic seniority number of the guy that could hold #1 narrow body Capt if every pilot in the company bid their most senior seat without reference to base. Then ratio the pilots starting at that seniority number 25 New Delta for every one Alaska until the numbers run out. Then Ratio the FO guys one Alaska for every 33.3 Delta till the numbers run out.
Since this is a totally fictional numbers game do not freak at the ratios that I picked. I simply did not want to spend the time to figure it out correctly.

Thanks Slinky. I'm guessing the md, 737, and dc9 probably make up at least 50% of deltas fleet. especially after you through in alaska's 100 or so 737's. so a simple way of looking at it, if that assumption is correct, would be if one were 30% up the alaska list you would be around 15% up delta list.
