I think they inherited the dc9s from republic.
MBA truly did save them. Wouldnt have helped us. At any rate, mba isnt the savior people think. If the exception isnt triggered (in most cases it wasnt) the act just demands arbitration. Not necessarily straight doh.
At airtran, mba was invoked and the arbitrator ruled 2 less years imputed for airtran employees.
Just for the record, I don't believe that DL ever stapled anyone to the bottom of the seniority list in they their prior mergers. This includes NE, WA, and lastly NW. I know that there were variations in the pilot group with a blending method. You can't really even factor in PA since that was an asset acquisition. So basically Joshie is wrong about the NW people being spared due to MB.
