Compass is coming back. A friend of a friend of my neighbors gynecologist said they just hired a Chief Pilot for LAX

All of which OO has at LAX right now. I suspect once things eventually improve a little you’ll see SkyWest jump in to fill the old Compass flying. Whoever ends up doing it whenever it may be, it will just be nice to see the Eagles nest operational again in LA

A proactive stance might displace and train everyone now since they don’t really need us on the line anyway, but I think management is in penny pinching mode, not proactive mode.
You're right, it'll be in October/November after the payroll protection and bailout ends. That's when the furlough and base closures will begin.

But that guy that was hired to be the LAX CP is at Envoy. You can never trust a neighbor to understand that we work for Envoy and not AA. I mean THKoolAid doesn’t even know the difference.

These ex CPZ birds WILL fly into LA one way or the other. It might be fly through initially but I fully expect a base at some point after the crisis passes and bookings are on an upward trend. LA is far too valuable for AA to walk away from and to have their #1 feed provider doing the flying is going to happen.

I just read what this moron posts and interpret it as the exact opposite.

Same. Works like a charm really.

LA flying will most likely be done by Skywest as AAG will continue to outsource when able to save a dime. Mesa will stay in the area for whipsaw purposes to keep Skywest in check. Envoy will be around for filler, but the probability of Envoy opening a base in LA is significantly lower than the probability of THKooj getting a lengthy furlough.

The LAX thing is like an urban legend and has been circulating around almost as soon as the base closed the first time. I can remember on day two of indoc many moons ago RW coming in and saying LAX was right around the corner.
