Put it this way, I am already showing 40 hours credit. And yes this is only the 5th, ( ok 11 is because of 2 days of training later in the month)
I hadn't heard that, I know some of our guys are happy to collect the extra pay but I'd much rather have the time at home. As a side note, I'd be happy to come over to 900 CA and help cover some of the flying :D |
i do believe there's a few of us in a hiring pool who would loooooove to help as well; any plane will do!
hey pinnacolsaba, give me a call! i can start ANYTIME! haha |

I find that hard to belive... The last class was told that as well, ask them how they like BOS....
Its safe to assume most if not all will go on the Saab since vacations for guys on the Saab have been canceled due to staffing levels. I'm just posting what my friend told me, they started today in MEM, 15 Q400 with 9L. I also have another friend who is hired and has been hired by 9E since April 27th and he was supposed to start July 5th with 9E CRJ 200 JFK. He was pushed back to July 18th two weeks ago, and now last week they told him to sit tight as they do not have a class for him because they are so backed up. Needless to say he is wondering when in the world he will finally get to start training, lucky for him he hasn't quit his job yet. |

If you are referring to the June 7th Colgan class, I was actually offered that class and I was told from the very beginning it would be Saab BOS or IAH or I could do June 6th and Saab LGA with Mesaba. So I took the earlier seniority.

. IF that happens, I'd suspect some grievances because there's senior Saab FO's that have a standing bid into the Q. I know EWR is staffed (had 11 reserves yesterday) and have been able to drop my line because we're staffed. I'm not doubting that Mgmnt told them they're getting the Q, but take that with a grain of salt. There are no firm orders for more Q's just rumors and as of right now we are staffed on the Q in IAD and EWR. But what do i know? I just fly the line. |
