From what I understand NWA tried to get the 100 seat aircraft at Compass but the pilot group stood strong. Thank you and I look forward to flying with you guys.

They may have stood strong on the 100 seat issue but they caved on the 76 seat issue and they had pilots on the street at the time.
To have management think that they can come to any pilot group and ask for scope relief is a complete failure of our unions.
