I hope the people that are getting called back are with another company and refuse. Once again, Comair will not be around much longer. If you are still working for Comair I wish you nothing but the best. Take my advice and start looking for another company to work for. I'm still not sure if your job will transfer to compass.

Historical at Comair is roughly 11 pilots per airframe.
At 98 airframes, that's 1050-1100 pilots, so at most maybe another 50 or so after these two classes of recalls.
After that it's just attrition, and with all the Comair guys leaving for Delta, the attrition number will be approximately two per year.
How many 50s are we scheduled to park in the next four years - all of them?

Do the former Delta guys do all the hiring, or are there some former NWA guys in that department?

And do you think I'll be able to hold MEM Captain when Delta transfers me to Compass?

OK, many over 50% of the DAL guys don't care for the Comair guys purely based on that letter. If you don't know about the letter, ask about it, it was posted again just this year on the lastest and greatest thread and they are still POed about it. In my OPINION the strike, the letter and it's author were a waste of time. At least it was summer during the strike.

The DL pilots are not happy with us because of that letter, I don't really blame them. I wasn't here at the time it happened, so hopefully time will eventually heal the wound.
That being said Delta isn't the only good job out there.
