What's your interview date? I am thinking of leaving a comfortable but incredibly slow and boring 135 job and throwing my hat in the 121 ring as well. I interview on the 16th.

What equipment are they hiring in to?

What equipment are they hiring in to?

I know they are hiring into the Saab. I have heard rumors that the RJ is a possibility as well, but H.R. wouldn't comfirm that on the phone and I honestly have no real internal knowledge of Mesaba's contract.

PilotChapin- It stinks to commute but you need the PIC time! The regionals are not careers. I wish they were in a way but my last employer took 5 1/2 years to settle a contract. They have 15 or so year payscales but they don't want you there that long!
Anyway, don't sell your self short!! You will get the career you want! Don't take a short cut (like GoJet) or step on anyone's toes. You have contacts out there that you just don't realize!
As a regional puke I got a sweet corporate gig with no internal recs or contact. Just Faxed the C.P. in the blind! I am home so much I keep volunteering for a trip, ha,ha.
Get your PIC, keep positive and help others. You will be amazed at the results.

Cheers-rum

That was some very very very good advice. Take notes Chapin!

My buddies are saying all hiring is for the Saab. CRJ would be achievable in a decent time though.

If my vote counts I'd say go for the street hire Captain slot. Building SIC time will not help much in getting to the next step.
