If I read this correctly, SWISS are now in trouble and intend to cut cost by getting rid of a number of aircraft and hence pilots. Crossair pilots are of the opinion that the ex-Swissair pilots should be the ones to lose their jobs first, as they joined SWISS and in their opinion SWISS = Crossair! Problem is, the aircraft that SWISS will be getting rid of, are nearly all regional (Crossair), but never mind, even though this is supposedly a cost cutting exercise, the powers that be will agree with this CCP view, lay off the ex-Swissair pilots and retrain Crossair pilots (by ex-Swissair flight instructors) onto the now vacant seats on Airbus and MD11's. SURE! And pigs might fly too! With all the problems that have surfaced with the emergence of Swiss caused mainly by the intransigence of BOTH unions, I think the management will be only too glad to find a neat solution. What bets, that in the very near future, Switzerland again has a regional airline called Crossairand an international one called SWISS - operated by 100% ex-Swissair equipment and pilots.
