Yes, Badgerned keeps the spreadsheet. Check his post number 4324 in this thread from back on 6/26.
Also, anybody know if there's a 3 Aug class? Seems all the current calls are going straight to 17 Aug.

Some info for everyone, I'm one of the Compass flow ups with a 7/6 hire date, starting training 10/5 after my 3 month hold back. My class is just the 20 Compass flows with no off the street guys and we did all get the MD-88, 10 in ATL 10 in NYC. there are only 2 flow guys left total from Compass that will get seniority in early Aug. and start class in early Nov. That's the end of the Compass flow.

I may have an issue with getting out of the military. I was hired a month ago and am now in the pool. I thought that the military would allow me to retire on the 1st of December allowing me to be on terminal as early as 15 August. However, since the command I am at is short on fixed wing pilots they may want (require) me to stay around till Mid-February 2016 to get the retirement. What is a military deferral? and how long will they be willing to defer me for? I am not in a terrible situation because i can still always get out, but that would be leaving a lot of money on the table for only 5 months of service. I do not want to do anything to jeopardize my current CJO. Thanks in advance!

Well I'm in that class and that's what's happening. 100% guarantee that. I'm sure any conflict with the spreadsheet is because of the confusing nature of the flow and when a class has only flow guys vs. one mixed with street guys.

Sputnik, thanks for responding. I am in a very unique situation. I am trying to take advantage of a drawdown program that will allow me to retire early, so I won't have the full 20. I do qualify for the program but they are asking (maybe requiring) me to stay longer to fill certain gaps IOT get the program approved. So, I can still drop a letter and get out with nothing, but I would prefer to take advantage of the retirement program.
