Delta will offer employment to an eligible Compass pilot before any other pilot candidate for hire in seniority order. To be eligible, a Compass pilot must: (1) be a Captain; and (2) have at least 30 months on payroll.
Unless waived by Delta & Compass, the max number of Compass pilots flowing up to Delta will be the lesser of: (1) 25% of total Compass pilots in any rolling 12-months, or (2) 20 per month.
A Compass pilot who fails initial training at Delta may return to Compass at his previous seniority and longevity.


You clearly know what you are talking about. :rolleyes:

Exactly. Only those hired PRIOR to the sale kept the flow through rights WITH RESTRICTIONS. Even LESS Mesaba guys kept their flow through rights after the sale. In other words, don't count on ANYTHING if there is a sale or spin off involved. (But at this point that is way too far out to predict. I'd say status quo at the wholly owned subsidiaries for the first 18-24 months. They have much bigger things to deal with first...just observe the United and Delta mergers. The subsidiaries are the last thing they get to.)

Never refuse an offer if it is your only offer...

Of course. Not My first rodeo.. An not my only offer. Seems like the best choice of the options so far. And one that I am looking forward too. Just wanted to see if there are people there that might know something. About the future. But I guess no one knows.

Cap Tony is just a skypest troll.

Haha, Thanks J3. Every time I log on to this train wreck I second guess myself. I've made my decision. Hopefully be getting a class date soon.
You'll learn eventually that APC, EL and other forums is all doom and gloom.

I used to be bummed every time I log into a forum and read bad stuff. I change my wedding date once and didn't took the risk of buying a home because of "what if I get furlough??!!". I still had 500 guys below me at that time.

Guess what? I still moving up in the seniority list, I still have 500 and more people coming below me. Yes, there've been bad news around, but nothing have changed. I still have pretty good QOL, the lines in march are a bit better than before. In buying a house and getting married this year.

It's important to learn not to get scared by everything you read, because at the end everyone here is a pilot and don't know a crap of what's going to happen.

Good luck with your decision, send me a PM if you have any question regarding eagle.

Stop! Harsh reality is not allowed here. They may call you a troll too! ;)

Let me put the original question this way.... Eagle has 3000 pilots, USAirlines has about 5000... We are a profitable billion dollar company that Parker already stated a few months ago he needed to look at the numbers before deciding what to do with us..... Do you honestly think he doesn't already have a plan? Gimmy a brake and let's stop all the whipsaw games and just f@&$ tell us what to expect...
