Fast upgrade, and DTW base is my main reason. From what I've heard Mesaba is slowing down hiring in the Saab, particularly for quick upgrades to captain. Seems from what I've heard here a majority of hiring is now going into the CRJ, which is only based out of MSP currently. So for me at this time it seems PCL would be a better choice. Plus I got a nice thanks but no thanks from Mesaba a couple months ago, but I'm pretty sure the computer kicked my app out because I didn't have my first class med or ATP written.
