I am deeply saddend to hear of the Mesaba news. It is very hard, but try to keep positive. I've been on furlough for 19 months now with Comair and there is finally a bit of good news regarding recalls. Mesaba was still hiring when I first got furloughed, so just hang in there. The punching bag will go to another DCI carrier soon and Mesaba will get good news again.

So I noticed the latest realignment notice has a net increase of 10 captains with no decrease in FO's. Is this a mistake or am I missing something?

Then wouldn't there be a decrease in the number of Saab Captains?

If its only due to Saab CAs moving over to jets, Saab CA numbers for those bases would be proportionately decreased by 10. I don't see that on this notice.

No I do no think that is the only reason. This looks like due to increased flying to CRJ9s and CRJ2s in MSP and MEM, and also due to expected 9 flowthru in August.

That's my point. Clearly this is not a displacement. This looks like a normal upgrade vacancy announcement. I think a new thread should be started with the title, "Mesaba's Latest Update." No one at Mesaba are newhires anymore.

Then is Detroit losing flying soon? We are extremely short on the 900s here. 7 reserves for 76 flying lines. Every day in July is at or below minimum staffing. Yet the company keeps adding everywhere but here, why?
