But for the new people trying to pick a regional today they'll either be starting to build their 1000 SIC, or fleeing a sinking ship if AA does drop Compass.

No doubt, but at the end of the day, we’ve been hearing this story for years. The same poster has been coming here since 2016 spewing the same story. Next year this, next year that...Maybe after three years, they will be right, who knows? I’m not sold on this place after the contracts are up, but I do believe everything will work out regardless.

It’s funny because this unity2010 sounds like one of those senile old people saying the world is going to end this year, every single year...you will see... 😂

The difference is we are now in a market where staffing regionals has become a problem. A few years ago Mesa was still able to fill classes at 22 bucks an hour.... Great lakes was still flying too.

Now Compass is behind the curve and may never fully catch up. If the trend continues the mainline partners will lose faith in Compass and move planes to somewhere they feel will be able to staff.

My guess on planes going back to a wholly owned is that they can quickly change incentives and have better quality control than by further outsourcing their regional flying.
