Obviously it's not final till my butt is sitting in class, but CPS is sure enough of it to be spooling up our own hiring in the fall. If the ratio from the last flow-up holds true, this implies at least 360 total newhires, and possibly more as 110 is the maximum that can flow in one year (1/4 of our total list).
2. We just signed an agreement with Delta to extend guaranteed interviews to all Compass pilots not covered by the flow (ie anyone hired after 8/2010). Applicants have to meet all DAL requirements and go through the entire Delta interview.
I thought the memo on the Compass thread in the regional section indicated that they weren't looking to hire anytime soon (as it relates to bringing on furloughed Pinnacle guys)? So this flow information was distributed subsequent to that?
Hope its true.
