I don’t think you’ll be bought at all. I think the AA planes come back, the Delta flying gets pulled back in house to keep upgrades going... and instead of being bought, forcing the new owner to pay high seniority wages, they’ll let it go bankrupt and pick the pieces off that they want for pennies on the dollar. They’ll offer preferential hiring and you get to recycle yourself as new hires saving the companies big bucks. buying it would be the expensive way.
For what it’s worth, the American-Compas contract was announced in 2014 and began flying in March 2015. No place could I find reference to how long it is for. There are a few references to a Compass PILOT contract that said is through 2022. All we’re from public source articles that were NOT airline forums.
If the phase in of the planes was two per month, it could take ten months to phase out and if six years could be anywhere from 2020 to 2022 depending on which date you go with. Like every other thing on here. You take the number that most favors your personal stance on the subject and stretch the truth accordingly.
