Theres a lot of criticism about flows, i personally have none butsome flows are better than others. Flows are real, even if you dont "believe in them", the terms shape a flow and no one is pretending to be expert enough on them to judge one against another. The new hire really determines the worth and thats a little counterintuative.
The EtD had 22 pilots worth of value in 6months 8 are still here. Idk man, if the EtD brought any value it wouldn't have been trashed.
Most people around here are well versed in how the Compass and Mesaba flows played out. To me it seems the flow (or maybe a convenient base) is the only piece that would even remotely make the Envoy deal higher value than the current Endeavor package. That is taking a giant leap of faith putting value on the flow, American's history with flows is fairly suspect. Go read back through the old Eagle threads and see how well American was honoring their flow agreement.
