I remember something similar proposed union to union wise when the company was moving work back and fourth depending on who was in negotiations. A deal for guys being able to move from one side to the other with their seniority intact when the company moved the A/C and work.
I believe both times, it was shot down and/or altered after initial agreement due to one side saying "sure - only if you come over at the bottom of our list" after all the talking was done. So I doubt that any of it would be workable. I think some of that was in the transcripts that were posted some time back during the seniority merger arbitrations (

I'm curious how the Polar side thinks that the multi-certificate single pilot scoped group is any more or less secure than the current situation. I guess that is being referred to as being "stripped" from the certificate on one side here. We both have sooo many ways to have work moved at any given moment if current life has not been a indicator on both sides. I remember another guy showing off the Republic contract and their scope that kept the flying to them under the whole umbrella of companies under the holding company. Not having that on both Atlas and Polar sides is our big downfall on both the Atlas and Polar contracts. The Republic scope would probably be a better choice.
