Hopefully things will work out in the natural course of things in soon. From what I hear Republic/Chautaqua/<Insert other sister company of the month here> is about to hold a big bid for upgrades, which will probably only put more crunch in the hiring market.
Hopefully the so called shortage of pilots we hear so much about will force companies to start increasing wages and living up to their promises. (Right... time for me to go back to my pipe dream now...)
As far as Compass, I do know that it's not perfect, but I don't think it's the worst place in the world to be either. If I could only get them to start ROA-MSP service in the E175, it would be a lot closer to perfect though! (not to mention I'd buy beer for a bunch of the crews passing through!)
A good friend of mine at Shuttle said they just posted some crazy amount of CA slots over there. I think I heard like 150....or something like that. Seems like a large vacancy to me. I'm sure you will see it but I just received some of that back pay they owed me. That definately helps things on the homefront. It's hard to explain to the wife why she has to cook so much Ramen
