Not sure if they are lowering their mins, but I get the feeling they are getting desperate, which should tell you something, especially right now in this economy and plenty of qualified pilots on the street.

Colgan and Mesaba will merge, but it will take at least two years. All three unions want one senority list and be able to transfer between certificates. Colgan is working on getting our pilots on the street into their classes for now with out giving up senority rights. Just some info from the XJ union call last night. I'm sure more info will be released at the appropriate time. thats all for now.

"Over the longer term, we anticipate that we can enhance efficiency and growth opportunities … by reorganising around two operating airlines," said Trenary. "Our intent is to combine the regional jets under Pinnacle Airlines and the turboprops under Mesaba Aviation. However, there are many complex issues to be addressed, and this will take time."

Mesaba would be the surviving carrier because it has the infrastructure to support a large turboprop airline, according to Trenary.
IMHO, this is a ValuJet buying AirTran and assuming the latter's name to get rid of negative press.
