HOW MANY more is Mesaba going to hire

[sf3boy]

When did that happen??? Are you joking??? Try 1996-1997. Remeber, Regional Airline of the Year!!! There were also those that were hired with 5000 hours of Duchess time and awarded Avro captain only months after being hired in 2000 and 2001. Of course, they are all back in the right seat now.

XJ Captain

Hey, stop trying to sweep the truth under the rug. We all know that when Bedford was here, that there were quite a few FO's that upgraded to Capt a year after they were hired. Now, when times have changed these same Capts are trying to sell to the 4/5 yr FO, that they need to stop complaining about upgrades and that they need to "pay there dues".

I sat in the crew room the other day and listened to a group of Captains whining that they are tired of listening to the 5 year FO in the right seat, bitch about not upgrading, same guys who back in 96' slid into XJ with a CFI & 900 hrs from UND and upgraded in a year..

Talk about forgetting where they came from. These are the same Captains that probably voted "yes" for the "no-cost contract".

Thanks to Wychor and his ALPA pussies, the 4/5 year FO is still carrying the load, a burden you never carried, so you can make your $80k per year. So stop crying.
