I doubt it. Although any thing is possible in this industry. Currently just Compass CEO and Compass negotiation group. The schedule may change somewhat as we just lost a ALPA Captain to a car accident yesterday in Carroll ND. Captain Steve Peterka was the ALPA secretary treasuer. He was involved with the recent meetings between DALPA and Compass. He was a great leader and pilot.

He received the ALPA airmanship award for his actions with a onboard fire in 2008. I imagine this will have a lasting impact on the Compass pilot community and could cause a impact with the entire process.

Some may know Captain Peterka from his time flying the DC10 for Sun Country, the 747 for Polar or the Airbus for Jet Blue.
