I had a co-worker get promised the dash.....when he showed up for class, suprise, suprise!!!!, they told him he couldn't have it.
The tendering of his resignation was contemporanious in time to the above event.
Aside from the mentioned above, I also know 5 guys that went to Mesa, within the first year, one left for Republic, one left for Chitaco, and one just started at Mesaba.
The two remaining are holding out for upgrade, which seems to keep getting further away.
