We are talking about whether you can hold a r-ATP at Compass. No one is asking what you need to hold a ATP.
Normal, holding an ATP is required at any 121 carrier, not just Compass.

A restricted ATP is an ATP certificate. You receive a full type, you test for the ATP and they take your written test. The standards are exactly the same.

You are correct they are the same, but not for hiring purposes at Compass. The contract clearly defines a new hire to have 1500tt. It also explains that you must be eligible for a "captain type rating". I and others have posted the language on this matter. Not sure why some are still arguing it. For those that missed it here it is:

In that case, your argument should also be that you must have 1000 SIC in 121 or 1000 PIC in 135 in order to be legal under the contract. So, are we then saying that everyone hired under the new rules meets the above requirments (e.g. no CFI hires)?

That changes it quite a bit then. What was said before was that one have a "captain type rating" and that was it. There's a difference between a Captain type rating and be Captain qualified. Thanks for posting the clarification.

I'm assuming Compass has not changed there contract since the new ATP rule. So maybe the company needs to release guidelines based on the new rule.

I don't think recruiting is having any issues actually. Most people in class are > 2000tt with an ATP.

Can any Compass Pilots here give me an idea how long it takes to hear from someone at Compass once you have submitted an app? It's been a month and I have heard nothing. I have previous Part 121 time including 121 PIC time- and a College degree in case someone was going to ask that.
I even met with Compass folks at a Job Fair in January.
I would really like to fly at Compass. Thank You in advance!
