I'm on a junior fleet where guys are way lower on the seniority list than they should be due to DC-9 and Airbus routes being replaced by Compass. I call bull on your statement. You could care less whether a promise to a Compass pilot is kept. I could care less too. I want the Delta PWA followed. That is what is important to me. The flow-up does not affect me one way or the other. The flow-down does. I feel that promises to the Compass group should be kept, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it if they are not. Going to Compass to go to Northwest was naive. I wanted to work at NWA, but I never even applied to Compass. It's one of those things that might work out for a lucky few. What's in writing is what matters and the Compass pilots who bothered to read the contract should have known that the flow could be terminated with consequences in the event of a sale. No promises are being broken if the contract is followed. Verbal promises are meaningless.
