The four point straps in the airplane are already uncomfortable; Adding wings would make it unbearable. Some of the guys wear a tie clip, and that's about as far as I would go.

Another sweet question (aka. Dumb) - How big is the Mighty Saab cockpit? I'm 6' 4'', will it be a tight squeeze or is it comfortable? And is there a jumpseat on the Saab?

I'm 6' 2" and move the seat/pedal adjustments one notch away from the largest it gets. The seat will go plenty far back though. It's not exactly huge in there, but you'll fit.

BTW, there is a jumpseat.

I would like to jumpseat from MSP to Regina, Sascathewan. What is Mesaba's policy on a jumpseat to Canada?

For those in the 9/10 class - have you already received you new hire stuff and confirmation? Just curious how long before class all that happens.
