my appologies, still didnt need to happen though, at least the bright side is i am sure what is going on over there now has improved moral a lot, by the way, is anyone training on the 200 at all? No one here seems to know if we are giving them to you or not

In the "Mesaba Newhire" thread, they said the next -200 class is scheduled for 9/24. And I know the July 26 class right behind mine had a lot of -200 drivers in it. Does anyone know what the holdup is/was with the -200 program?

I believe it was the flap 8* deal of some sort, others can elaborate better. Are there any "new hires" getting the -200? I would really like to get MSP out of training if thats possible? Also, ive been studying everything i can, just curious if the gouges are still current on the interviews as well? Thanks

Last I heard is that the 200s will probably all be retrofitted to flaps 8. Q: Why?, A: Standardization. It stinks to have to include exceptions in all of the documentation, and FAA papers, and training, and etc. when some airplanes have significant differences from others. Furthermore, DTW aircraft routinely come to MSP and MSP planes go to DTW. (Who knows what the heck goes on down in MEM!)

Names out of a hat. Period. Please don't be the guy who gets a complex about what equipment you're flying. If I was you, I'd hope for the Saab, but they all get you from A to B just fine.
