Anyone hired after 2/18/11 just goes to the bottom of the SLI list. For seniority purposes it doesnt matter what company they get hired into. If they want to try and fly a jet, go to 9E. If the turbo props suit you, go to 9L or XJ. If someone had a crystal ball, they might be able to tell where the quickest upgrades will be and that could influence your decision because of the freeze's, but I can tell you one thing, you will never upgrade before M.A at 9E. That guy will literally eat pig dung to upgrade.
the one lots of mesaba people are still on. the company is planning on this ta passing. If they weren't they would just recall the furloughed pilots instead of hiring more. They are hiring more, waiting for the ta to pass, and then will send out the recall letters and continue to hire.
