Standard CPZ staffing model: get almost caught up to proper staffing, then cut way back to save money until staffing is critical, then go bat crap crazy trying to get caught up again, rinse, repeat...

Any theories as to why JS is forwarding the crib pay emails now?
No more humor allowed and they have to be screened?
Delta bought us and Delta doesn’t like funny business.

Everything adds up

Yep. MD88 entered service for Delta in 1988, the last in a series developed from the DC-9. It's 30 years old, getting tired, and won't do much if anything the Embraer -195 E2 won't do better and cheaper, while burning a lot less Jet A. Heck, the MD88 still has JT8Ds.

Makes all the sense in the world to start replacing the old MD88s - and stapling over 600 already qualified pilots onto the bottom of their seniority list to fly it.

You heard it here first.

All our schedulers are at a weekend training seminar hosted by Delta to help with the transition to mainline. Delta buyout to be announced Q5 2018.

That's why Compass is cutting back on training classes, trying to figure out Delta seniority integration and exactly how many they'll need.

Delta stops all hiring for the summer and we cut back class at the same time... definitely connected!
