How would that work for airlines with 14,000 to 15,000 pilots ? We have a few here in the US.
And how would it be decided what pilot is "better" than the other 10,000+ to be evaluated for employment when moving from Airline A to Airline B...on an individual contract ?
The concept of a national seniority number to accommodate some of the issues raised in this thread has been floated here a few times among ALPA-represented carriers. It got nowhere.
