For protection from outsourcing their wide body flying (which they currently don’t have and may be at risk through offshore partners) which is the highest paid positions on their payscale as well as the ability to assure the junior pilots a flow down in the event of furloughs they actually MIGHT. It removes the two greatest vulnerabilities their pilot’s group currently have. It may well be a salable proposition. Whether it can be sold, an LOA written up and signed off in time to help Compass is another question. But the continuation of recruiting and training classes would strongly imply that - if nothing else - Compass MANAGEMENT is willing to place a few bets and toss the dice too.
