Okay, then please provide some data regarding how many applied/interview/hired at Delta from Comair, and compare those stats to the same from Eagle, Compass, ExpressJet, Chautauqua, etc. Until you have accurate data, let's just leave the commentary to your internal dialogue only.

Who really would want to go to Delta from Comair? Go look at the latest and great delta thread and see what they say about comair.
I'm sure that, just like this thread, it's the same 5 or 6 guys doing the complaining and posting over and over and over. It's the same 5 or 6 guys on this thread that have had the same posts for a long time now. I've heard "Comair is done" since initial groundschool in 2005.

If you tell a lie long enough, people begin to believe it.

It is a select few that hold the grudge but they really have one. I've never had trouble jumpseating on delta they were always great. I'm just saying if you go to delta be prepared to run into the 5%(prolly less) that will treat you like scum.

Default Quick Questions for any Comair Pilot

It appears that Compass and Mesaba have been sold. I couldn't tell if the sale was pending or complete until after hunting around for info. Can anyone tell me if this is in fact the case.

If Mesaba and Compass have been sold....

1) Did the flow up get canceled? I have read on another thread that some are claiming that the flow up is cancelled for everyone at Mesaba and Compass.

2) There appears to be nobody for Comair to merge with. If this is the case are we getting our $220 back from our merger assessment. Are our union leaders working on a way to return the money? Is it even being discussed?

I know that some may consider these to be hot button topics, but I genuinely want to know the answers to these questions.

Do you think they might recall more? I'm in the mid 30's from being called back.

according to an unofficial source inside (that's been right on everything so far) there's going to be another recall of the same size as this last round (48ish) sometime this month... if true... looks like you're on the bubble of just in or just out...

Hope you are right, and I moved up 90.

Hey Spoiler when are you done with training?
