    Mesaba Mgmt "Pleas for Sacrifice"

    I wonder what managements next move will be? Im guessing they will use this as a chance to save face and ask the union to talk. Soon after meeting they will work toward a middle ground and they will continue to say they need 19.4% but they are willing to give a little since they really need to...

    Mesaba Mgmt "Pleas for Sacrifice"

    As of right now the average seniority is probably up, but if and when they possibly grow to say 1000 pilots every pilot they have to hire at year one will bring the average seniority down. I think that most of the guys and gals furloughed in the first round have moved on, but the latest round...

    Skywest hiring ASA pilots

    Did anyone that interviewed at Skywest in the first week of September hear back from the company, either way. I think they were hiring for a Oct 2nd class 30 EMB120, and 39 CRJ? Thanks in advance

    Mesaba Mgmt "Pleas for Sacrifice"

    Will we vote for it? If management is successful it will get voted through. Who ever is working the strings to the puppets knows what there doing and Im willing to gamble my parents basement bedroom I sleep in that the final offer from Management won't be 19.4% or whatever the current numbers...

    Mesaba Mgmt "Pleas for Sacrifice"

    B.P crew room meetings are designed to do one thing, make everybody believe things are so bleak that your best option is to move on since you won't be able to put food on the table for what there asking. Every pilot they can scare off the seniority list is one dollar in their pocket and if its...

    XJ: Shuold I stay or should I go?

    What has this judge been doing that is working the Unions appeal? Does he work other cases simultanously, or has he been out fishing thinking things over the past few weeks? Hope he comes back soon.

    Champion Air

    Hey WorkinStiff -Where are you based DTW or MSP as a FE? -Can new hires hold MSP (FE) out of training? -I took it as explained earlier that you get $36/day perdiem plus $50/day instead of hotel if you are within 50miles of hotel for a total of $86 perday and I take it that is seven days a week...

    XJ: Shuold I stay or should I go?

    I think RAH has a two year training contract so keep that in mind in case XJ starts calling back before 2 years. But at the current pace of the bankruptcy procession at XJ that shouldn't matter. I guess do whats best for you right now is what I was taught.

    XJ: Shuold I stay or should I go?

    Sorry for the dumb question but what airline is RAH? I wish I would of taken the voluntary back in JAN, FEB 06 and started elsewhere building seniority while keeping my # at Mesaba. Hind sight is 20/20. And that would have only worked if I would have been proactive and could of just rolled...

    XJ: Shuold I stay or should I go?

    If you want to stay in the flying business take your chances at a regional that will let you keep your number at Mesaba. Worst case XJ folds you are on a list else where and if XJ grows you can come back. The airline business these days is not worth jumping around. But Jumbolina you are in a...

    NWA answer to pending strike of FA's

    Im guessing NWA wants to recall while the imposed terms are in effect hoping that alot of the flight attendants will not want to come back under those terrible work rules. So Im guessing most don't come back and NWA gets to hire year one twenty somethings. Thats hardball business and not right...

    XJ Attrition= Jr. Mans.

    I heard that that current captains with time in the Avro were getting hired into the left seat. I guess the pay after Irish tax and conversion to US $ was like 8K a month for captains and 5K a month for F.O's. (net) They are also throwing in a furnished apartment. Nice way to wait out the...

    NWA Strike

    How fast has Mesaba's negotiations been lately? Sounds like Mesaba's pilot negotiations were making such good progress that the mediators decided it would be wise to take a break for a while and come back at a later date. Or that would be another way of saying we need to wait and see how this...

    Xj Downgrade Classes

    Not only 500 in type but I guess they wanted 1500 hours of (Multi Crew Aircraft time) or in U.S terms Part 121 time.
