Sept. 22nd Mesaba Class

All ground schools start in Eagan, MN at the XJ training center, this includes indoc and systems. For sim, at the training center there are 2 saab sims and a CRJ200 sim with our 900 sim coming online shortly. That said... there is still a chance one could go to Montreal or Denver for sim as apparently those contracts that were due to end have been extended. Normal training footprint is about 6-8 weeks. During our massive ramp up, people were waiting a long time for OE once sim was complete, especially on the 200. With the entire 200 fleet on property, that length is likely much shorter for the future.

I've heard that HR got over 100 apps in the last week. All those apps have to go through the first screening process and then they go to the HR rep that sorts out all the interview scheduling. In other words, be patient. We're one of only a few airlines hiring right now, so you can imagine how swamped everyone is. BTW - a wide range of times are being interviewed, not only high time pilots.
