This brings up a question I've been pondering lately. Does Delta hire OTS Endeavor guys? Same with American/Envoy? There's been a long-standing belief that the majors prefer not to jeopardize their largest feed by hiring people away on top of the flow/DGI/whatever. Assume a normal person, not a Shuttle commander who just came to check the 121 box. Anyone know for sure?

Word302 is correct. If a captain leaves Compass for Endeavor, they could still get hired off the street to Delta.
Guys are upgrading at Endeavor in 6 months with prior 121, or around 18 months if it's their first gig. So they are still improving their resume for AA, UA, etc while making more money with the added benefit of Delta extending a preferential interview.

If you want to spend the unforeseeable future on reserve in NY go ahead. Enjoy not getting to fly hardly at all, taking 2-3yrs at the least to get 1000tpic. The hourly pay is pretty much the same as if they still had the bonus. It’s not like this is some new magical amount of money that wasn’t there before.

The better question is: how is the PHX crew room? And the follow up question: is it cool?

Looks like we have another tattle tale in our midst. If your captain isn't wearing his hat and it bothers you that much. Tell him, or pro-stan. Not management. Also if he's not wearing the blazer, well its over 75 degrees in LAX today so its not even required.

Heard the same thing. Funny the entitlement a CFI gets when every airline wants them. Times have certainly changed. Sounds like someone new is looking to claim that yoke clip fame!

Yeah but we have the most clean and reliable lavs, and you can enjoy using them at any one of our west coast bases. You just can't put perks like that that in a paycheck. I hate to state the obvious, but it's gonna be tough to come close to what we got...

You know you’ve made it in aviation when you can pee while standing up inside.
It’s an entirely different kind of flying.
