Why do so many think Delta wants a flow up? They couldn't dump the Compass and Mesaba flows fast enough... The only reason Compass was grandfathered was good language put in when Compass was created and much groveling to get a few Mesaba guys grandfathered. Delta wants to hand pick everyone, not be told who has to be next based on a regional seniority number.

Shuttle landings are hard to come by... I'm not being sarcastic as a "stereotypical" airline pilot in the US. My DL contacts told me it's select to the top pedigree at this point. Either check multiple HR boxes or be "the man" on a resume. It's a nod to the delta guys, but a hard knock to those who tried to build a good résumé with regional experience. No offense intended, it's the realistic current atmosphere.

The beginning of Ab Initio programs, perhaps?
