I sent my online app on November 11th and still have yet to receive a response email/phone call whatever. It seems like I was reading a post a while back where a fella sent his after mine and already got a reply. I'm not sure of the process or how that works. In the mean time, still waiting.

-900 hiring will continue through april, and saab hiring will continue until feb. 6 -200 captains will have their seat lock released on the next vacancy and this will be the last time this happens. ATL flying starts feb. 12 on the -900 and saab flying starts march 2nd with two airplanes. Memo came out yesterday. Hope this helps.

Where is this memo you are referring to? I did not see it on Mesaba website. Are they going to release Saab CA seats also for the next vacancy notice?

The XJ memo could very well be up in the crew rooms but hasn't made it onto mymesaba yet. Which is odd, because usually it happens the other way around.

It is on mymesaba under XJ memos. It is right above memo 08-78.

Ahhh... haven't checked today. THanks.

effectively there are no more Saab seat locks, only the 200CA's (after the next vacancy) and any of the FO's that jumped FO seats earlier this year.

Supposedly almost all the growth is going to MEM.

Do you think alot of MSP and DTW SF3 CA's will go to MEM to get on the 900? Or will it most likely be MEM SF3 CA's? The memo says only 6 MSP CRJ CA's will have their seatlocks released on the next vacancy to fill the new 900 slots.

If you look at the past awards, historically people do tend to favor their own base. But I guess it all depends on each person's wants.

Some Saab captains may move base to go to the jet but probably not many. Either way it is even less likely that guys already on the 900 will move bases so I'm probably stuck at the bottom here for years....
