I work for Delta North.
I would rather be an April 08 hire at Delta (now that they merged with NWA). How is that relevant if RAH buys Compass and the lists are merged? The question was what would happen to the Compass pilots if the almighty RAH buys Compass. If we were merged with a mainline carrier, I'm confident we would be stapled. I don't think we are talking about the same thing.
Just to be clear, I am not suffering from any of the following dilusions:
1. That we will ever be stapled to Delta,
2. That even if we were there would be any kind of an integration as opposed to a straight staple,
3. That I'll still have a job in 2010,
4. That it would be a good thing if more 76 seaters went to any regional airline, ever,
5. That it is a good thing that there are already 51+ seaters at any regional, or
6. That the stripper who was all over me actually likes me.
