We need pilots in all the bases, I think we may be surprised by JFK.

Expect an update in the next few days. I'm waiting to hear back on what is under confidentiality before I speak but it's my understanding that the meeting was supposed to be public knowledge afterwards.

I would say MSP is more senior than MEM... I'm about 40% in MSP and about 30% in MEM

I have no source and it's truly just my opinion but there seems to be far more interest in JFK than when ATL showed up... And it's only a -200 base. I *imagine* it will be very junior on the FO side, but I think there are many FO's bidding JFK CA for the left seat. I have no facts, just basing an opinion on crewroom gossip and the calls I have been getting from seemingly all bases.

All Pinnacle new hires will be below Mesaba Furloughs. That includes future furloughs. So if you get hired off the street now, and in a year mesaba furloughs another 100 pilots and they come to pinnacle those pilots will be above you on the seniority list. Think about that long and hard before you take an off the street job @ pinnacle.
