I sure hope this doesn't happen. Being in the bottom 300, the Compass flow is VERY important to me. Not just because of the cost associated furlough protection that it provides. but because if I do get furloughed, I will have a place to go. But it seems like with the current financial environment, it would be very hard for anyone to get financing to buy a regional airline.

Did anyone else get the telephone survey from ALPA? They called me over the weekend - I made a big deal about how important scope protection was to me.
