But, I think I'm making real progress here! :laugh:

Ok then, I will forgive you falling off the wagon this one time. Next time remember to call your sponsor if your having a moment of weakness OK ?

It's been more like a month of weakness.

And here is your quick upgrade...Its at the regionals. All those Big RJs Republic and Mesa fly, well they are grandfathered in, and don't even count.

Just don't apply then! Problem solved for you! I am sure the new American will be hurt that you passed on them, but will somehow survive.

No, I would like to work there...Im just trying to get a true picture of the risks involved and what the real numbers look like. It seems most of the time, people are forgetting certain groups, inevitabilities, or realities.

You have been speaking of possibilities as if they are inevitable. My advice is to get a seniority number at a place you'd like to work for the rest of your career. Speaking specifically for the new AA- if you get furloughed you will be back in short order unless there is severe nationwide crisis of some sort. The reality is there is a large amount of retirements coming up and the merged company will have to run fat on pilots anyway until they can merge the whole thing together and that will take a couple of years.

The people actually working at the place have explained the situation. You don't seem to want to listen.

Or possibly, they do like most mergers, and shrink...One Super80 comes off, and nothing takes its place. That's just as likely as 500/yr. Its a gamble.

Yep. Based on the last thirty years in this industry, shrinking mainline and expanding regionals is most likely.

Re: The interview dress code, it says company uniform. At my company we don't wear jackets or anything, it's pretty much plain jane. Has anyone opted for wearing a suit instead and if so, what is it acceptable? I don't want to be that guy not following rules but I just feel that my current uniform is "inadequate".
