My personal feeling is that we will be lucky to see half of the furloughs return. So, estimating 110 returning to staff 36 new airplanes plus continued attrition, I would expect to see Mesaba hire in the neighborhood of 250-260 between now and end of 2008. Expect Compass to hire roughly 300 or more in the same time. (We could ultimately be one and the same, but who knows.)
At Mesaba your pay will look like this for the CRJ900
Year Capt FO
1 57.21 22.81
2 58.94 27.35
3 60.71 30.03
4 62.52 32.71
5 64.39 33.69
6 66.33 34.68
7 68.32 35.73
8 70.37 36.80
9 72.48 36.80
10 74.66 36.80
Keep in mind too that we have all of these "kickers" in the TA that will boost those numbers some depending on aircraft on property and true ups based on average seniority etc. etc.
And just think. Now that Colgan is in the "family" we could see our Saabs get taken away and given to them to operate at lower cost! If you dare join the Red Tail family, be prepared for a rollercoaster ride and HAVE A PLAN B.

wow slaphappy, you are so far off base its not even funny,, its actually kinda scarry man. You think they get all of this because of concessions? or is it because over the last year they have gone from 100 planes to 49 saabs? Then their company filed for bankruptcy and was going to force wages on them, so instead of doing that they decided to meet half way. so man,, worry about your own concessions instead of worrying about pilots who had already been beat into the ground.

Obviously SLAP you have now clue! On a great day we can fill all 30 seats, we average about 27-28 and on a very bad day we carry 24-25. The most profitable route in the company is still a Bro route out of SLC and our fuel burn is EXTREMELY minimal (less than 1000 lbs per hour).
