Mesaba street captains

[Varig]

Is Mesaba hiring street captain into the CRJ??

Nope. Probably won't happen either.

If you're too good for the blender, you're too good for Mesaba.

There are 2 newhire captains in 900 class right now. They were hired through a loophole because they are going to be linecheck airmen.

I heard about these guys when I was offered the saab CA spot. I heard they were 900 instructors based in MSP, is that not the case?

I'm pretty sure that they're on the senority list as FO's

They are both on the seniority list at the bottom. They were hired as instructors due to their already being exp. crj drivers ie other 121 carriers. We are short on qualified crj LCA/instructors. They in no way are skipping infront of other in regards of seniority. They are purely for instructional purposes only. It is my understanding they are just like any other new hire.

Yeah , No CRJ street capts. Only the Saab.

An Eagle F/O supposedly was hired as a CRJ-200 IOE check Airman. He had no CRJ experience, nor any 121 PIC time.

In class now, apparently.
