XJSAAB: They are mad busy taking applications and working thru the hiring process. We are not slowing down!!!!!! There will be street captians here soon.

FTROOPPILOT: Where will street Captains come from ? Let's see. We need a group of high time Captain qualified pilots, under "contract" to NWA, sitting around, grumbling about not flying or being paid as Captains until they get operational in airplanes they don't have yet. It would be nice if their company HRO and training center was located near (perhaps in) the Mesaba training center. Sounds like COMPASS to me.

I'll stick to my six month old prediction. Mesaba and Compass will merge.

XJSAAB: Senority, sex and pay are the order of priorities in life

FTROOPPILOT: Didn't your parents ever teach you about love, motherhood, apple pie and the flag ?

XJSAAB: CRJ 200 sim being built should be done by November? and a 900 sim coming soon as well to MSP.

FTROOPPILOT: I wonder where the Compass "E" simulator will be built ?
