I haven't heard even a peep about additional airplanes beyond 36. A lot of that is going to have to do with how Compass fits into the picture and what happens at NWA mainline with DC-9 replacements. Recall that we are somewhat choked with regards to how many 76 aircraft can be operated without adding aircraft to the mainline.

Certainly fun to entertain the possibilities though.

BP said compass was to be operated by mesaba, using all of our resources except pilots. This situation is going to get a little sticky...I wonder if we have the right to bid over to the compass side of mesaba?

WHAT?! When did he say that? He is trying to stir up trouble it sounds like. Where do we get these people?

Take a look at page 5 of the March Newslaunch and look at how he has his right hand! I am wondering where the other one is!!!!

Gents. You have a good discussion going on "flight time minimums" here and on other threads. As a service to those interested in the possibility of Mesaba employment, could you continue your discussion on another more appropriate thread.

Thanks

Compass has the better of the two contracts.

Hahaha, that does look weird, also it looks like there is an extra hand floating at his waist. Actually that whole picture is funny, did they even look at it before they published it.

90+ furloughs returned, so I wonder how the training center is going to handle this. Also that will probably reduce the bankruptcy claim for furloughs into the $8000-12000 range. I didn't expect to get more than $5000 so anymore will be a pleasant surprise for me.
