[flyboyzz1]

Not up to speed on Compass. I searched for other threads but couldn't find any. Whats the deal? Anyone have any links on hiring or other information. What are others opinions on this subsidiary?

dead....Pinnacle will get the compass jets when they settle for less. Compass has saved the company over $100 million on labor leverage.

In other words, Compass has done exactly what Northwest wanted it to do.

NOT dead... expect hiring in 2nd Quarter of next year. 11 planes by end of 2007, based in MSP. Don't expect much... growing pains for first year.

We aren't even negotiating 70-seat rates, so we certainly won't "settle for less."

The orders for the EmB will be converted to EMB 195 and be flown at mainline allowing more options to be given to xj do to NWA scope

36 planes is not profitable.

It will be when Neil Cohen sells the whole kit-n-kaboodle (spelt wrong of course) to Bedford and he comes "home" to fly the red flag again.

It'll be a cold day in hell before Bedford has anything to do with the redtail again.

He still has family there, ........ you know, .......... on the board.

You don't think Neil has floated the idea to Dougie?
