I know there isn't a big chance of this happening but what if...
It has to be completely voluntary, the company cannot force you to take half time lines.

So far it's all been Saabs and 900's. They are supposed to go eventually. Course so were the Avros before it was announced they were on a one way trip back to Europe. So take it all for what it's worth.... Nothing.

For what it's worth, which isn't much, at a January ALPA meeting they said something to the effect that for the half time lines you'd find a "buddy" and the more senior guy would bid a line, then you'd choose which guy took the first 2 weeks or last 2 weeks of the month. That was 5 months ago when it was just being talked about, so I'm sure it's changed. But that was the original idea...

is there suppose to be a June or July training date? I've got a friend that is saying that he is going to go to training in the very near future at Mesaba. After reading this forum, and seeing that they aren't advertising that they're hiring I don't understand how he's saying he's got a class date.

Maybe he is going to be a new flight attendant but there isn't anything that I know of for pilot training.

I would ask him when his class date is I would be interested to know...

yup there's supposedly 2 newhire FA classes coming up for some reason. Nothing as far as pilots though. Perhaps it's a rampie class.... they need a new group of those about every other week.

Sounds like more then just 2 newhire FA classes in the open house for FAs they are telling them there will be classes all summer. Only know this because a friend of mine is going through the process...I talked her into applying she isn't hard on the eyes!
