So the worst case scenario for a hewhire is Captain at Compass. That transition would be a 100% boost in pay from first year at NWA and includes a Lineage 1000 type rating. All one would have to do is fly the line for 500 hours and jump off to a corporate gig paying 85 to 150K a year until recalled at what, year 2 or 3 pay at Delta? I am just trying to stay positive here, but a furlough to a Captain gig on an E-175 beats they heck out of selling cars or bone density scanners! Of course, if we are talking more than a few hundred furloughed, 115 hired to date, then it would be off to the Honda dealer or AGR!
