What’s frustrating is the whole initial announcement where they said “the other party was totally ok with us going public” followed by the memo a few weeks after saying things aren’t progressing as fast as they would like and that they just entered a MOU to negotiate.

That's the part that gets me. The other party gave the green light. Give us something. Anything. “After everything is officially signed, Compass will be getting xx airplanes. We don’t want to say from who or where they will be based but plan on delivery Qx of 2020.” That would be more than enough for most I think. I just feel like the agreement may have fallen apart because they went from excited to stressed and almost pessimistic sounding.

Not sure what attrition is but most people are interviewing. Classes for most airlines are 1-3 months out so plan on massive attrition November-January if nothing is announced. An FO I flew with told me the CP was processing a two weeks letter every 7 hours. Not sure how true that is, but I wouldn’t say it’s far off. I would say we will be losing 30-40 pilots a month if not more by the end of October.

I really like Compass and I’ve had a good few years. I loved the people I’ve worked with most of all. I hope there is good news around the corner, but I can’t put my life/career progression in jeopardy based off of an announcement that may never come. Most of you know me as someone who is optimistic but I’m just sharing how I feel about the situation. Hope for the best, expect the worst. That’s how you have to live in this industry.

Oh god we lost our PRIA person at TSH. Can’t wait to have this screw up people’s CJO’s because their new companies can’t get PRIA docs

"We've set up a flow to Frontier. They'll take two of you per month."

"We have information coming, but we can't tell you when. We're excited!"

"We still have information coming."

"Oops, the Compass all call is broken. We'll tell you when we fix it."

"Oops, our PRIA person quit."

I dunno. TSH might actually have SGU beat when it comes to evil genius management.

Did they never even do a employee call after the broken call?

7 AOS, 3 in service. 10 airplanes down - 4 we lost. We are operating with a fleet of 42 planes. Anyone remember the good old days with 62? Well 61 because 747 didn’t count as a working aircraft.

Relax! I am sure that TSH is proactively advertising after the employee gave their two weeks notice.
