Thanks for the quick reply, I am not a commuter, but damn getting nailed with a SC at 1930 for a 0530 would SUCK if I were one.

Interesting note on the Flow TA - If Compass is sold once again, the flow up is cancelled.

Never thought 400+ pilots, myself included, would ever want to work for TSH so badly...

C'mon, DAL, keep hiring!

First the max that can flow is 25% of the list per year, so I assume that you have four years of flows. I did not see this 25% requirement done away with so as I read it it will take four years for all of the CPS pilots to flow.

Flow up rights for Compass pilots will end if Compass is sold and is no longer an affiliate of Trans States Holdings, Inc.
o Should this occur, all parties will meet to determine whether and how to continue the flow


This is per the LOA

Also, if the lists are merged the parties will reconvene.

IMHO, all and all a very fair LOA and I am glad to see all of you getting access to the DAL seniority number you thought you would get when hired on!

Now lets just hope those jets are not sold to RJET and CPS ceases to exist.

Agreed, and it is never worth getting caught gaming it by sitting LC at home unless you have flight that WILL get you to base no matter what time the call is.

Did they call you on an off day preceding your reserve days after 1500 Mecca time? Cause they can't do that, after 1500 you aren't liable to be contactable until midnight.

Just a reminder for everyone to take the time and fill out the survey on the Flight Operations website.

It has some good questions this year!!

They've got a lot more flying to come up with if they're going to staff it with 160-180 FOs. Where's all the flying coming from? Anyone?

I agree. I think is was very important to honor the commitment we made to the Compass pilots, especially considering that they would take the hit if Delta furloughed (hopefully not anytime soon.)

I am very happy to see that the 76-seat jet restrictions stayed in place and were not negotiated. I also was happy to see some very important protections for spelled out for any possible flow-downs.

I am not as well versed in Mesaba flow-through language. I also am curious where the 108 number came from. Obviously most of the Compass and Mesaba 108 pilots will be pleased with the outcome, however I am curious what #109 thinks of the agreements.

All in all I think our negotiating committee handled this well. I too cannot wait to welcome aboard the Compass and Mesaba pilots when they get the number they were promised.
