Hey guys, I'm facing my first possible furlough at my current airline. I just signed back up for airline apps and submitted my app to Compass. About how long after someone sends in their resume will they hear something back? I'm making Compass my number one choice in hopes of an LAX base so I'll have a relatively easy commute.
Which airline? Gotta make sure I don't have an app in there.

From the outside things look pretty green on the Compass side, What makes it so much greener at SkyWest?
Island Air. New CEO has changed fleet plans and we have no clue what his plans are now but there are too many pilots, since they hired for two additional aircraft -- two Q400's, which were paid for in cash, are being flown to Arizona to sit in the desert.

Ah, ok. Yeah that sounds like a business decision that my upper management team would have made. Yikes!
I interviewed in the beginning of this month. My app didn't sit long in the queue (measured in minutes), but that was the middle of last month. Compass has been getting a lot of FOs from my airline recently. Good luck on an email soon!!

There's contract language that will protect any pilots in such a situation in regards to pay, bidding, scheduling, etc.

A couple questions for guys who just went through training:
1) If we get STL, how long can we expect to stay in MSP? About 4 weeks?
2) When we get to sims, what's the schedule like? 3 on, 5 off, etc?
3) Is there a long wait between PC and LOE? LOE and IOE?
4) Where is IOE being done out of? Will we be on the hook for hotel rooms the night before/after the trip if it's MSP? Is it usually a productive 4 day or two trips?
5) Will we get moving days after IOE? I'm going to be driving a long ways...
Thanks for taking the time to read/reply. Sorry if it's already been asked, but things have been changing a lot lately.

2)totally random but typically 2-5 days of sims in a row
3)no wait between MV(not a PC) and LOE. Wait between LOE and IOE wI'll probably be about 5 days minimum, and likely keep increasing as the weeks go on. This is due to the number of check airmen not being enough to cover the amount of pilots in training.
4)mostly msp. The trips vare in length, depending on what type of trip, the check airman you get prefers.I think you do have to get your own hotel room, not sure though.
5)you will have some time between end of IOE and your first assignment. They usually work with you and accommodate your schedule. They are very good with that.
