Not much "quality" of life when you're making $22/hr with your so called 16 days off. Then again, no regional FO their first few years is making any real money.
'My money is on concessions'...... sounds ironic. :laugh:
Another last minute, no preview "special meeting" involving more "confidentiality agreements". That brings back a little deja vu.......
If the company decides to furlough, perhaps all of the captains that just went through training or still in training, will bid a new aircraft to go back to as FO. :p

Also, if they ask you in the interview which aircraft you want to fly: the Avro, CRJ or Saab? Where do u want to be based? What are you going to...
Actually FLYINOKRA, with Mesaba's 3 year seatlock on FOs, you won't see any current FOs move over to the CRJ. Unless they have no desire to upgrade after 3 years (because if they move over to the CRJ FO they will be seatlocked for another 2 years), as a new CRJ FO in MSP you'll be on the top of...
Just in the last few months I've had rough jumpseat experiences onboard -9s and 320s.
What's one of the first questions an NWA driver asks you when you ride with them?.................. 'What aircraft are you on?'
