I'm new to the forum. Hopefully you guys might have some suggestions for me. The recent vacancy 08-08, releases the freeze off of the Saab FO's so they could move to the 900. I'm a DTW based FO on the Saab, sitting in deep reserve. So I'm thinking about making this move for the MSP 900 FO position in the hopes of getting back to Detroit (hopefully before training ends).
I understand the seat lock would prevent me from upgrading for 24 months. My TT is around the low 600's, so upgrade would be a while anyway (depending upon flying potential).
I love flying the Saab, and don't mind sitting reserve at all...i'm just not flying much.
Any suggestions?

Just out of curiosity, how many more 900's are due in MEM and DTW? Anyone take a stab at how junior/senior this FO vacancy will go?

Why Mesaba underestimated it...probably because we don't choose the routes...thank you DELTA/NWA

Just finished my Fed ride yesterday and got the call today for my schedule for the rest of april.
I start reserve in 2 days, plus today off(but they didnt call me till 5PM)
It seems like pretty short notice to move. Anyone remember how long they had after IOE/fed ride until the first day of reserve in domicile?
