Compass was created by NWA with an agreement that Compass pilots would flow up when hiring began again and furloughed NWA pilots would flow back to the left seat of a E175 when times were tough. Only a few furloughed NWA DC9 FO's flowed back after 911. After the DAL/NWA merger, all Compass pilots on the list when NWA created them were offered a flow to Delta. IIRC..some flowed without a degree..maybe 700 total? Once that was complete..DAL sold off Compass to Trans States. All Compass pilots hired after that date did not have a flow agreement.Originally Posted by KnockKnock
So there were no new hires in the pipe that had the rug pulled out from under them after the sale? I was under the impression that those 400 some pilots that got the flow, struck a separate deal and the new pilots didn’t get in on it. I’ll ask my buddy, he’s a product of the program. Maybe I miss understood him the last time we talked about it.
I dont think any original Compass pilots had the rug pulled out from under them..but your buddy knows more about it than I do.
I'm glad DAL honored the flow up to mainline for those that agreed to a flow back to the left seat of the E175..even though it was negotiated by NWA before the merger.
Jmho..CG
