I see they are still hiring a very few people. I would also assume that anyone hired will be on reserve forever, what is the junior most base?

Also, what is the reserve call out time? Does Compass use hot reserves? It there a E175 sim in MSP?

Thanks
 
New hires from the last class went to every base. MSP and MEM went the most junior.

Two hour callout. There is a provision for ready reserve but they don't have enough pilots to use it.

There is a sim in MSP but it's not being used yet.

.................................................I'm a bit slow. Didn't realize you're furloughed. In that case, you're not doing too bad. When I was furloughed for a year, I was taking home $362/week. I received the maximum from the State of Michigan because I have a family of 5 with one income.
Hang in there. Things will pick up.

Hi!

I was living on $362/week, but not flying, not flying glass, not flying an aircraft that is in MASSIVE demand all over the world, not in line for a slot at DAL, etc., etc.

I am now making decent pay, but I'm on a 165 day trip, which is slightly longer than the Compass trips I would be on.

My buddy flies for them, and has never needed a crash pad, even though he commutes. Spends a max of 2 nights/month in a hotel in base city.

Are you paid during training at Compass? I heard you have to pay for your own hotel during training.. Is that true?

You are paid for most of training. They don't pay much during the first 30 days which is train at home on the computer.

They don't provide hotels in base, and they make everyone MSP based for training. Just like papa Northwest you are MSP to train but not always for your flying base.
