I've heard that too from a CPZ source. Although the numbers being circulated could just as easily fit with normal hiring at FedEd, UPS (soon), SWA and guys bailing for foreign carriers. Throw in even a few growth aircraft and the numbers being talked about wouldn't be for a flow.

Here we go again
 

Oh goodie time for our annual six week "Compass will be flowing soon, letters in the mail just hold your breath!!!!" rumor. I'll check back in another six weeks for the "You guys at Compass are screwed, 1600 f-bombs at delta starting next week" straight from RA's pedicurist's dog walker source. :rolleyes:

Man this stuff is getting amusing. Let's wait and see if anything happens. Time to go enjoy our families.

More seniority, pay and scope helps us to do exactly that. ;)

Here we go again... ?
 

I didn't hear any numbers but intriguing. See if it happens.

You need to read this thread more and chill out.

I'll agree to that. It's all about family.


Here to a great PWA!!! Hope our negotiators are working hard this weekend.

The rumor I heard a couple of weeks ago was that some (maybe one) would be modified and tested with the CVG category. So that seems to bolster that rumor.

The other part of this rumor was the training for the new system and using tapes would be CD based. :D

And no I'm not kidding. When I first heard about this new cockpit and 717 rumor in 2010 the word was the FAA would sign off on this if we went to training every 30 days. Of course that's not feasible... but maybe they got the FAA to allow cd training to qualify? :eek:

I heard the FMS and GPS part has been cancelled. Because, like FTB reminds us, "MD88 goes where it wants. MD88 don't give a sh!t."

Damn.

That's a good point. I did say that.

Oh well. I was looking forward to a screen where I could actually see the nav display without leaning forward. And not just forward, but way forward.

Change airplanes! :D
