That's a ridiculous statement. Management is laughing at you right now. There's no reason you should have to sacrifice pay for decent accommodations. A large part of our week is spent in these hotels to rest, and prepare to take care of the companies customers and assets. A nice place to...

It's incredible someone can build a machine that flies at 4/5ths the speed of sound six miles in the sky, and the printer only works half the time.
I would imagine it flies a lot like Shuttle America, Republic, Jet Blue, and Air Canada's Embraers. I don't know how the Airbus flies, but on ours, if you pull back the houses get smaller, push forward the houses get bigger. Left and Right are pretty self explanatory, and our throttles...
If your 600 was magical, and you had it all figured out, congrats. When I got to the airlines I was really good at touch and gos in a 172, pumping the gear down in an RG, and flying a Beech Travelair on One engine. Flying hard IFR with pax on the East Coast was not in my repertoire. I had...
The Business travelers? The true business travelers know the regional airlines better than some of us. They know how to find out who's flying their flight, and many book travel based on that.
As for safety, don't I remember this happening quite a while ago, when all the feeders became part...
Pretty old story. Maybe she should have voiced her opinions about the wages she made (and knowingly signed up for, as wrong as they may be) through her newly elected AFA instead of the local media. Here's another idea: When you make crap for wages, maybe commuting to a crashpad in MSP from...
I never understood this. Chief Pilots and Mgmt have offices. In those offices should be a uniform. If a trip needs coverage that bad, they may then place said uniform on themselves and go fly. The CP at our company used to do that all the time too, and then yell at people for not wearing...
Luck has nothing to do with it. The flow agreements have been a well known and documented entity since day one, not secret. It was a matter of weighing the risk of being flushed if NWA/Delta furloughed vs. the opportunity hopefully at hand. If you're bitter it's nobody's fault but yours, you...
You make it sound so simple, yet the histories of both companies are very different, which I'm guessing I don't need to explain. If everything between the companies were equal, I'd agree with you, but Compass is a relic of the Redtail, with it's own contractual differences and problems, and...
Facts, figures, and numbers? You can't use logic and backed-up information in a flight info conversation!!!!!!
As for CPS vs. MDA...
The uninformed like comparing the two without knowing much about either individual situation. I think many are hoping for the arrangement at Compass to fail...
Yeah, those damn contractual agreements always get in the way, don't they? As for "backpacker bros" you obviously don't know too much about compass. There's a lot better chance of getting a grey haired mustachio. As for Delta not liking it, the pilots may not, but Delta Itself has nothing to...
And I'm not saying it's hard to get to Compass, just that most people here have either been at their career airline and it shut down, or been furloughed from _______ (fill in any major or regional, and there is probably a representative).
Yeah, there's a flowback, and we still have a few of...
