I have a hard time understanding how a potential merger might work ? 2 options I see :
option 1 : DAT AVRO's + VEX 737's. . they will have to get rid of Avro's. . + pilots. . expensive Boeing leases. . no ex-SN airbus rated pilots will. . join NewCo
option 2 : DAT AVRO's + SN A319's. . VEX pilots dumped . . SN planes & pilots cheap
