American take over of Twa question/s
American purchased Twa not long before 9/11.
The top 800 on the Twa on the pilot seniority list were intergrated with Americans according to their start date.The rest were stapled to the bottom.
After 9/11 and the furloughs which followed,apart from the top 800,most of the Twa pilots would have been looking for another job.
Have I got this correct?

To be clear, the stapling wasn't quite at "the bottom" of the list as there were a few hundred AA pilots below the TWA pilots when the merger actually occured (who are still furloughed 9+ years later).
However, this is an extremely controversial topic which has been argued vociferously, vehemently, and very nastily in a dozen other forums.
Lets let it settle a bit further into the dust before we discuss it as 'history' because it certainly isn't 'nostalgic'.
