Man...it's crazy but I am in that EXACT situation too!!!....I like both companies but Mesaba is my #1 choice......It all depends on different things that you want (bases, aircraft, work rules etc)..........I think both are good companies though........

BTW, im doing my Mesaba Interview first...........

Mesaba = Upgrade almost as soon as you have the time (right now it's literally like 2 or 3 months), future looks very bright, lots of growth, lot's of movement, new airplanes coming online, new routes starting every month,flow through w/ NWA should be kicking off 01/08 with 3/mo until 09/08 jumps to 9/mo.

Peidmont = Upgrade non-existant or years and years, no new airplanes or growth expected, future unknown........

I could have mine earlier, but I HAVE to study for final exams which are the week after next, and I graduate on Dec 15th. I talked to HR and they said that I could interview like the 27th or 28th or something which would be perfect. So, ill spend that time from the the 15th or so just preparing, and studying for the interview. Good luck, let us know how it went (i'll prob. have some PM's for you after...if you dont mind...
