Ah yes, another clear, accurate Internet posting containing nothing but whole truth.
DOH is a staple job? How does that work? US Air certainly hired most of its current pilots after the birth of America West Airlines, so where do you come up with this?
They (East) say that DOH doesn't staple AWA pilots to the bottom of the list, well it's obvious to me they (the east pilots) haven't looked at the DOH list to see what will actually happen.
On A DOH list (Dated 01-07 and not updated since this came out right after the arbitration what completed, here is what ACTUALLY happens to the AWA pilots.
Our number 1 pilot comes in at #847
in the top 1000 pilots 30 total are AWA pilots
in the top 2000 pilots 137 total are AWA pilots
in the top 3000 pilots 293 total are AWA pilots
So in the first 3000 pilots at Us Airways - only 293 are AWA pilots. That's out of 6519 on the total list. That's 9% of 3000 or 4.49% out of 6519 if I did the math correctly.
In the top 4000 pilots 533 are AWA pilots
in the top 5000 pilots 1156 are AWA pilots
in the top 6000 pilots 1403 are AWA pilots and
in the final 6519 pilots 1828 are AWA pilots.
Just in the LAST 3519 pilots at US Airways 1535 are AWA pilots. PLEASE someone tell me that this isn't being stapled on the bottom of the list. That's 43.6% of the last 3519 pilots are AWA pilots.
AWA pilots only comprise 29% of the total pilots on this list. As I said this list hasn't been updated since then. There are 4694 AAA pilots on this list and 1828 AWA pilots.
Still the statistics are there AWA is stapled in the bottom half of the list.
How bout them apples, bizzatch???
