Why would DL buy Compass when they can lower their total labor cost by moving the planes? Everyone at Compass would have to start at year 1 pay IF they follow the planes.

Apply to more than just your top choice. Yes in the current market you can pick where you'd like to go, but it's always nice to have a backup.

It's not a waste of time if it helps you achieve the long term goal.

Coming to compass is like livin life in the fast lane. High risk high reward, but sometimes you lose big (fall16). On the west side, we ride or die.

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.

You are going to be deterred by a troll who doesn't even know how to spell "bought"?

And SO WHAT if DAL bought (or even bough) Compass? I thought the whole idea was to work for a legacy?

If delta boughT compass

Do you really think If compass is boughT by DAL why would they want to keep the American 175 and just return them and worse case situation all compass pilots get furloughed or intergrated into delta seniority which would be very unlikely
