Bitternes...?How many commands were there at bmi in the last 8 years? How many 10+ year Fo's are there flying with Bmed commanders with 4 years service? After seeing LH as the great saviour only to have the rug pulled is not pleasant for anyone in the group.
Weell....you could also bring up the guys who left bmi to join BMED and get commands their colleagues are still waiting for. Should they be demoted?
These things happen, however unfortunate. In any case, this isn't the place to discuss internal issues within bmi.
With regard to the seniority issues in the event of a possible merger with BA, the DOJ strategy adopted in bmi was the right one, however painful it may have been for some.
It would be difficult for BA to relegate the entire bmi pilot community to the bottom of its seniority list after BALPA upheld a DOJ strategy in bmi.
The precedent set in bmi would, by rights, have to be observed.
