So if you had to choose between compass or republic where would you go? If I went to compass I would have to commute from MCO-LAX which would suck. I'm assuming at republic I would get PIT or something straight out of class.

Compass is a much more stable company. Do you really want to be furlough fodder at Republic?

I was going to say the same thing. A willing new hire right now at RAH is like walking onto train tracks with the ground rumbling. The furlough train is on its way. Then again maybe it's on another track and it blows through the station without incident. There is a large risk imo.

Compass is better airline but that commute would be horrible. At least for me. My commute is less than 3 hours and it is the max I could do. There are plenty of other options in the Midwest and on the east coast that would offer the same as compass with less of a commute. If you want compass I would move to LA.

I love to see so much un/mis information among a group of people who are supposed to be educated and smart enough to be liable for the 50+ lives behind them.
Chapter 11 is such a scam.
If airline pilots were business and finance savvy, they'd be making real money as financial advisors or business owners.

Yes, that's what they told my new-hire-at-the-time buddy at Pinnacle when it went Chapter 11, 6 years later, he's laughing, crediting 18 days off a month and on his way to Delta.

The truth is nobody knows yet what RAH's reorg plan looks like. Nobody knows what the fleet plan will look like, how many aircraft, how many pilots, how many bases, how many feed contracts. The only people that know these things won't be sharing that knowledge. My experience with ch 11 was not a rosy one nor has it been for anybody historically. There's a lot of risk for the employees during ch 11 and for this reason any new hire should look at RAH with their eyes wide open.

It's actually pretty clear for everyone to know what RAH's reorg plan is... A single type fleet with the 170 and to get rid of the 145's that lose them money every month by sitting... I don't get how anyone could possibly even say "the furlough train is coming" when not having pilots is the #1 problem they have.. why would they furlough? Everyone knows everything though so.
