Anyone have a break down of where the last Saab class guys got based? Did pretty much everyone go to IAD, or were some assigned outstations? Just curious to see what the current trend is.

Seniority order with the oldest being the most senior and youngest being the least.

Can any current Colgan guys give an estimate of monthly per diem pay they receive?

Depends on the line you hold. 4 day trips yield about 450/month. Stand-ups about 170. Day trips get NO perdiem. A new hire will be on reserve 5 days out of 7 and can be assigned anything. Budget for 100-150/month and be pleasantly surprised with anything over that.

That's correct, however the Mesaba people in your class will be at the top of the list according to their Mesaba seniority

I heard differant. Mesaba people have their seniority for pay purposes only. For scheduling and bidding they are treated like normal new hires. So age would be the only factor.

I would also venture a guess that not too many Mesaba guys came over as I *believe* the original stipulation was no outside hiring until all Mesaba guys were hired or turned it down.
