"An important deal was struck in October 2006, when Northwest Airlines placed an order for 36 Bombardier CRJ900 aircraft and took options on an additional 96, for a total of 132 aircraft. The value of the orders based on CRJ900 aircraft list price would be approximately $1.35 billion US. The value could rise to $5.18 billion US if all options are exercised.

"Neal Cohen, Northwest's CFO, will serve as chairman of a newly appointed Mesaba board. Cohen will wield considerable power over Northwest's regional operations, because he also holds the positions of chairman and CEO of Compass, a new Northwest subsidiary that will fly 76-seat Embraer jets."

Tell me this wasn't all planned out on some dry erase board in 2005.

Speaking of all this why is Compass now looking for a chief pilot? Is ther old chief Steve Sargent gone?

The last three weeks at PAN AM where Mesaba HQ is, there has been atleast 8-10 pilots a day interviewing for Compass and using PAN AM's 727 sim for the "eval machine." The interviewees said that starting pay is somewhere around 24.00 an hour, and they plan on hiring atleast 20 per month.
