They'll find out next week along with the previous class...

I guess I should have said any hint of where? We were told really early where it was likely.

we'll see what the initial award is... but my guess is a bunch of IAH Saab FOs going up to the IAH Q400

Sounds like us in the Mesaba pool will be waiting for awhile until Colgan gets staffed up. If you have the 1000/100 I suggest trying to get in one of Colgan's classes to get your # earlier.

I don't think you know this... But, Colgan and Mesaba are the same good sir. The interviews are all held in MN with training in MEM or MN. The Mesaba certificate will go away and it will all be placed under 9L certificate. The name will change from Colgan to Mesaba but its under the original 9L Cert. There really is no difference.

When it comes to only having 850/650 it does make a difference because I can't jump into Colgan's classes because I don't have 1000. Until that changes, there will be some on the fence.

Ummmm, I don't believe Mesaba and 9L are having classes seperately. Here you are all equally worthless :D jk. To my understanding all the hiring is done through Mesaba and flowed into 9L Saabs. Colgan doesn't conduct interviews anymore, its all done through MN.

They are having classes both in MN and MEM. Have a friend in class in MN with 500 hrs and they told his class if anyone had 1000 they had the option on a Colgan class.

I got the offer with Pinnacle on 6/1 and was told to expect the 8/1 class date. Now that everything has been turned in on my part I am waiting on them to confirm it, however, nobody seems to answer my calls or return them for that matter.

Does anybody out there at 9E have a solid number to call in HR to confirm this? I understand this is how it goes because I have 6 friends of mine who went through the same process who are working there now.

Just curious, appreciate the help!

Now, what about Pinnacle? Lot's of talk about Colgan/Mesaba and I recently got the phone screen from Colgan but does the interview cover all three or just Colaba.

Just Colaba 9E is still on its own
