I'm not hiring a lawyer. I'm done with Mesaba. As far as me having a case, that's exactly what ALPA said, and they didn't like it either. Now, if they want to "follow up" within their MECs -like they suggested- that's their problem. I have moved on. All I was trying to do here is tell people what happened to me and a few others. Use it any way you want.
Sorry you didn't get the job, but the letter was pretty clear.
If this sounds more like your case, if I were you, I probably wouldn't sue them.

Well, at least there is SOME good news on the horizon. Whenever the economy turns around (my guess 2nd quarter '09), the demand for seats will surely return. Whenever the US and European economies turn around, Asia will resume its sickening expansion and will need more pilots. Things are still going pretty strong in the Emirates too. Why do I bring these things up? I think things will be better for all of us when the mainlines are healthy and there is a renewed worldwide demand for pilots.
As for the rest of these posts ... I'm always up for a good debate, but speculating where planes will go between the several different regionals for the same codeshare later on down the road, and who will be bringing more in from straight off the assembly line is a little petty unless you know from either a press conference/release/financial report that it's going to happen. Now, maybe I didn't read a post or two on here fully, but I don't think anyone is talking facts here about aircraft being taken away or gained in the future, just speculation ... which is great, but putting down other airlines in the process is a little uncalled for. Just my .02

I don't mean any offense by this questions here bud ... but do you honestly believe this economy is going to turn around this year?! I think you're being incredibly naive to think that. My guess is we are in for another incredibly tough year, and then maybe things will start slowing turning around in 2010.
