We can speculate about the hiring process all we want, but explain to me all this:

- Why was the Hoffman Group (DAL's HR pilot hiring firm) sent to MSP to set up a DAL interview process?
- Why has CPZ's management been conducting the "Delta interview" for weeks now?
- Why is a new Delta hiring computer testing center being set up at CPZ headquarters this week?
- Why has the manager of hiring at DAL sent the top 60 pilots at CPZ letters with projected class dates?

You're "in the know" so perhaps you can answer these questions.

I'm sure that management understands what canceling the flow at Compass would do to morale, on time performance, write-ups, etc. They know and have acknowledged that the flow is good for morale. Following through on a promise is usually the best business practice to motivate employees.
