Something BIG is happening kids... something BIGGER than we ever imagined. NOPE! Something Mesaba has never seen before. Hold on folks, you thought the last 1.5 years was a ride? Strap in and get ready for this one.

The only thing big that is going on here are RUMORS! Ones that pilots keep making up. These are below rumors. This is a bunch of made up BS by people on a message board every time a vacancy comes out.
