Hackman said:I did not mean to open old wounds here, but when our own AMR Eagle AMT's come over to AA, they do not carry their Eagle seniority to AA. It would be extremely unfair to award TWA employees full seniority and not Eagle, right?
Also as Bob stated, rewarding TWA for capitulating to Uncle Carl, and hanging out the EAL fighters to dry for taking down Lorenzo would also be very wrong.
I know portable seniority will never happen, but its a nice thought. B)

Hackman........... I don't know if everybody misunderstood or if it was just me,but I thought you were talking about bringing your seniority with you from airline to airline as related to your years of experience and pay scale. This in my opinion is one of the great things about trade unions. They care about your trade and expect you to get paid for your experience and knowledge of your trade. They do not want you to get short changed by the company if you happen to work for a company that goes out of business and then you go to work for another company in the same line of business.
