No way to tell but I would imagine most would take Pinnacle first unless they live on the East Coast. This is a guess as well as how many actually return is unknown for now.

Are you really THAT eager? If a bunch of Mesaba furloughs say thanks but no thanks shouldn't that maybe be a warning flag for you? Not to mention going to Colgan now means NO quick upgrade which was the benefit before. The Seniority integration will have the potential to bite the new hires the hardest, part of the reason they want the furloughs is because it simplifies the process.

Some guys will never learn.

If only people could be taught through others experience than only through their own....

Word on the street. All Mesaba guys that are furloughed and were in the CRJ will be going to Pinnacle. The Saab guys are going to Colgan. Those that were not "F" will have a 2:1 ratio of senority that will transfer. Those "F" will be stapled to the bottom of senority.

thats a big negative, we have 12 furloughed Saab drivers going over to 9E in the August 26 long class on the CRJ, as far as I know we don't have one single guy looking to go to Colgan...the 2:1 deal is something both Unions will have to figure out...I would be surprised if it went to that...

As usual. This is what I was told by a Pinn FO while chatting in the terminal.

If a new hire was placed on the Saab, is it possible and how long could it take to bid and be awarded the Q400?

Thanks!
