When did the guaranteed interview go at CPZ? I remember that was a compromise after the flow was sunsetted.

Do you want me to say those that passed the SSP are the same as those who haven't? When the SSP started, no one had flow rights to Delta, but now that hundreds have already passed, how else do explain those numbers to a new hire comparing Endeavor to others?

As those below stated, Compass no longer has anything right now. Flow pilots are all gone and no guaranteed interview.

Yeah, since they already passed the SSP, I really don't see how it is any different than flowing to Delta at this point. Not as good % wise as the Compass flow, but it gets better this year and the next. The other downside is their class date doesn't start until they start training there. For the Compass pilots, they had a good holdback provision that preserved their seniority at Delta.

Yeah, just as you could approximate Compass having ~300 pilots flowing to Delta in 2014-2015, Endeavor already has about that many who already passed the SSP and will be flowing to Delta in 2016-2017 as long as the hiring continues. Attrition off the top is huge for your career prospects, especially if it is artificially increased like Endeavor and Envoy have. I would also say PDT has a descent %, with PSA currently with one too, but not nearly as good as it could be.

So after I got hired by Delta back in 2007, I flowed there, right?

It's a pool.

No one really knows. It never culminated into anything. We really should have one at CPZ, seeing as there is still a flow down for DL pilots in the event of a furlough. It's very one-sided now. That flow down should, at the very least, warrant a guaranteed interview.

At the end of training will you have a PIC or SIC type rating?

Not something that should've been stated if it was not a done deal

Everyone gets an unrestricted type rating.

Bracing for Fallacies

My wife and I are doing taxes now. Looks like our federal and state tax returns will be slightly more than double what they were last year. They only big change for us was the retention bonus. So for all the folks debating the retention bonus with regards to taxes, it looks like if you can wait til tax season, you will likely have a pretty good return.*

*I cannot possibly speak for the tax returns of 1,600 pilots, but I'm just throwing a data point out there.

It's no unrestricted. Circling approaches are allowed in VMC only like in most other places.

Lets try this question again. Why would a new hires initial base/equipment assignment somehow take precedence over what has been my number one standing bid now for multiple vacancies?

Can someone tell me exactly how long training is? From the first day of indoc till you are on the line flying passengers? I'm seperating from the military and trying to figure out when to have the movers show up. Thanks.
