Alright, time for a thread revive. Anyone else think something is up with our COO's retirement in June(ish)? Just seems like this is another step towards a merger/aquisition. We keep hearing "training pipeline looks good for staffing by june or july" but at the same time our COO is leaving at that same, yet appoximate timeframe. All these rumors of mergers seem to get more and more solid. Im not a huge rumor guy, but something seems amiss.
Thoughts?

Sorry first time caller long time listener. Anyways I get where your coming from with Compass pilots having value. But at the same time I don’t think Delta cares I’m not management and I’m not with any of these airlines although I used to be. My best guess is Delta will slowly pull these aircraft into the Endeavor fleet taking them from Compass as they get people trained in them because it’s cheaper for them to hire someone off the street rather then take a 10 year Compass guy and they aren’t having problems with hiring. Right now they are turning people away and telling people to expect class dates in the fall.

You hoping to spend 10+ years at a regional? Go to Skywest or a wholly owned. You looking to get the quickest upgrade in LAX or PHX? Come to Compass. If things fall through, many other places are offering some wicked fast upgrades brah, and you can just drop in and get pitted. You'll have to get that 1000 hours of 121 time anyways, before you can upgrade so you might as well go big or go home. But that's just my 2 cents.
