Any "Latest & Greatest" about Endeavor?
I know that; but in a merger, they don’t ever just use date of hire for where you’ll fall in seniority, it’s a complex algorithm that would put their most senior captain, probably a 2007 hire around guys hired in the mid 1980s here. In terms of seniority, compass being a “junior” airline wouldn’t behoove as at all for merger.
Also don’t forget compass had a DTW base at one time so very senior people that are barely holding reserve in Minneapolis and Detroit would probably end up getting booted to New York

BL said he doesn't wanna merge us. Junior FO in DTW hired this year. Junior Captain in DTW has about 2.5 years seniority.

I just figure the planes are coming either way. I was attempting to say that I personally don't care if it's 175s, CRJs or something else. I don't care if the engines are above or below the wings. I think some of the Compass folks feel we're after 175s specifically. With that said, only by virtue of me trolling APC, their pilot group seems to be a bunch of pretty positive people. The other DC carriers seem to be a bit more negative. And, I don't care to punish another pilot group because their management is bad. Just trying to stay positive. I dig 9E. I just think we'd be best served with merging groups rather than doing another ExpressJet deal. Just my humble 2 cents. Good mojo and all that.

Allow me to sort of refresh some memories and quell merger thoughts. If a merger occurs between us and CZ, that wouldn’t begin until from the end of 2019 to mid 2020. So for now there’s no worries about that. Shifting is in the works though. Something I’m not privy to yet but there is a shift of something in the works. I’ll try to squeeze some intel soon.
How much of that will be as an FO on reserve on the 200? How many monthly credit hours can I expect to get as a CRJ 200 FO on reserve in DTW?

LOL. Hats AND DGI. Still plenty of stuff to gripe about at 9E for the haters.
Or, let it go, relax, have a genuine conversation with the hard working FAs and fellow pilot on your next flight.
Heck, Compass pilots have a much bleaker outlook than us, and they're joking about snack baskets and dropping some of the funniest memes I ever seen on their feed. I'm hoping our future growth entails an acquisition and fair merger with them. I don't care about their planes. I want their humor and positive attitudes in our pilot group.

Junior DTW 200 FO linr holder was hired Jan of 18. So he probably set reserve 3 or 4 months total. Most FO reserve guys get around 80 to 83 hours of credit depending on how much you're used. If you live in base, reserve guys can get into the 90s easily through a day or two of pickups.
