When you say you got the call what do you mean? I was thinking about Compass so I could stay in SEA? Are they shrinking, and as far as ending up in a company you didn’t want to. I was at Expressjet when a whole class was told they were going to the CRJ side which none wanted because of the basing. Regionals can do anything while you’re a new hire.

It's true that Compass is losing 6 E170s (the only E170s they have) to Republic to be based in New York. It is NOT true, however, that the classes were cancelled, or the applicants have guaranteed jobs at TSA and GoJet. The three are completely separate companies, with different hiring requirements, separate managements and hiring and training departments. Suggesting you can be hired at one of them and suddenly "appear" in another company is ridiculous (kind of like being hired at SkyWest and end up in ExpressJet class). It's a ridiculous rumor!

Lol, sounds like we have another bitter "thanks but no thanks" candidate. Nice try troll. Yes they are going to east coast and RAH. We dont have an east coast base where delta wanted them. Nothing else you said is true.
Those 6 were under a seperate, recently expired contract, way different than our 36 DL 175s and 20 AA E175's.

I was trying to spread the word about what I heard was going to happen. I appreciate the insults.

Obviously I don't, I stand corrected. I hope none of the poolies take the offer! I feel sorry for everyone involved. Another proof regionals are the bottom of the industry and there's absolutely no pilot shortage.

I can confirm that Compass has canceled classes. I had a start date of Feb 2. They called on Dec 19 and told me that they were canceling all classes. I was told I am #10 in a pool if/when they start classes back up. It sounds they are waiting to see how many guys split for the majors in the next month and then they are going to re-crunch their personnel numbers. It sounds a little like a knee jerk reaction so I was thinking of holding tight and seeing if their is more info in a couple weeks. I was called the same day from GoJet and Trans State to get offered a FO spot with them with class start dates in Feb.
