Bata, is the flow not in the alpa contract? From what I know about the contract the flow is locked at 30 months min. Also it only allows for 25% of the capt. list to flow each year or about 75 people each year. There are also huge FAA issue with loosing 50% of your captains each year at a 121 carrier. If history is any tell of the future, the flow may not work as advertised. Those that don't know the history of the airline industry are really sheep being led to the butcher.

5 crews per aircraft is normal so for 36 aircraft that would give you 180 captains.

For low time people this looks like it may turn out to be a decent place to be. For anyone with any decent flight time, it may not be a good idea. Each to their own as none of us know what will happen. I do know here at ASA we are loosing people to all of the majors at a very nice rate right now.

Good luck to all of your Compass guys and galls.
