When I look back, I'm happy that I made the decision I made to come here because it worked and was best AT THE TIME. Looking foward, if I were in your shoes, I don't think I would come here simply b/c of the unknowns...ie:
-When will a contract come and what will it be
-Strike?
-Loss of 15 a/c-more to follow? Does this lead to quick upgrade halting?
-How long can I live life as a reserve capt. at pncl?

There is also possibility for good things:
-A top 3 contract out of negotiations
-no strike
-Recieve more Delta flying down the line and with the new contract, new hires are easy to find meaning quick seniority for me

Sitting where you are, I don't believe I would take the risk IF I had other options (with the exception of Mesa, gojets, etc). Like I said before, Mesaba pays better, has a quick upgrade, better contract, same bases, recieving more a/c etc. I only mention Mesaba in case you're looking for Mem, MSP, or DTW as a base. Hope this helps and good luck in the interview. Make sure you know your stuff going in so that you are the one making the decision and it's not made for you.
