Yes. Right now we are in order based on the seniority given to us on our first day of class. We just weren't "hired" till our check ride. This means that someone I'm senior to may get their raise before me, but I still bid above him. The agreed to seniority list for SLI purposes has our new hire date being the same as our original seniority date.
Personally I don't think our seniority date has anything to do with the delay. I would bet it is Mesaba arguing that the furloughees who are flying the line at Pinnacle and Colgan shouldn't be considered furloughed for the list. That is why Bloch is looking at the MOU about them coming back to work.
