Upgrade mins are 2500TT/1000 with the company per the contract
The Mesaba certifcate will be retired once all the DTW/MSP/LGA Saabs are retired. There are no "Mesaba Saabs" since they're all leased from Saab Leasing by Delta. There's also no guarantee that they will replace any former Colgan Saab.

All new hires with 9L, 9E, will go to the Saab( so i've been told). I know IAH and IAD need Saab FO's. The displaced Saab FO's in Boston and LGA will probably go for the Jet since the last "Q" class was in April which means the Q has very limited openings right now.

If you are displaced, you can go anywhere your seniority will hold.

Anyone displaced from a position (LGA, BOS, MEM, DTW, MSP Saab for example) can hold whatever their seniority allows and they will subsequently "bump" another pilot out of that position. In the most recent realignment a number of junior 9E FOs were displaced from the rj to the Saab.
I know you haven't been around all that long yet rotate, but make sure you're feeding the new guys accurate info because it will spread like a wild fire whether it's right or wrong. Rule #76, no excuses play like a champion.

Regarding the Saab FO's in BOS, they can't bump any "Q" guy/gal because they were hired after the "Q" wave. So, I would think their seniority will be much lower than a "Q" guy, right?
Also, I was told that 9E can't get enough pilots. So, from a pure $ standpoint, I would think many would bid the RJs.
