Don't worry they are just jealous that they don't work for a great airline like Mesaba.

Well, they're setting up the lottery ball machine now to decide who gets them..There's a new drawing every week, and all the DCI carriers are represented. The airplanes will actually stay with a carrier when their ball comes up two weeks in a row!!!!

Does anyone know the actual size of the hiring pool? I'm assuming it contains the Jan 5, Feb 2, and March classes...I'm trying to figure out how many of us have a class date on ice for sometime in the next decade. Good luck to everyone else who is looking for work right now...to the guys on the inside right now: I sincerely hope you don't get furloughed.

I sure hope it's 40-50 instead of more. I'm was picked up at the very end of the hirring spree for a March 30 class.
It's a good thing I stocked up with beer in my raft because I'm going to be floating in the big pond for some time

Pinnacle Airlines</STRONG>
Pinnacle Airlines will operate out of Atlanta with 16, 2-class CRJ-900s.
So what does that do to the numbers needing to "go away"?
