Saab... maybe a couple Q's mixed in... but primarily Saab for the 5th and 25th
6/6 was all Saabs, and the one before was all Saabs...

 

We're short everywhere but I haven't heard about the Q drivers getting hit with extensions and jm's like the Saab has. I could be wrong about the Q though. All open time in July for the Saab is being offered at 200%, I've yet to have a day off without a call asking me to pick up time, some days they call twice.

 

Thanks guys for your inputs. Appreciated.

What about the new package, following the recent change of agreement? What is the F/O payscale? PM if needed!

 

Look HERE for the information you're looking for.

 

Thanks, I should have checked the other website Time to pull the plug and enjoy the weekend!!

 

Have you not seen the memo "Resistance is futile"

 

keep in mind those are contract date of signing pay rates. each year all pay will go up. Q400 FO pay maxes out at $48.48/hour in 2015.

 

LMFAO!!!!

PNCL has taken over sport.....

 

I'm at a loss about all this hiring...

Fact: XJ SAABs being parked

Fact: PNCL Corp likes to understaff, contract be "danged"

Speculation: Massive hiring wave very soon at majors leading to attrition

Speculation: Any more Q deliveries other than the replacement for the accident airplane.

 

Now that they have the Q situation under control they are weary about taking any more Q options right away until they get the staffing sorted out on the Saab... in the mean time pinnacle is heavily understaffed, mesaba is trying to fill their LGA Saab slots, and colgan is offering 200% on all open time in July... so my guess is massive amounts of hiring for the forseeable future... limited only by the respective training departments' abilities to train so many pilots... the 6/6 Colgan class actually had all their ground school done at the hotel because Pinnacle's CEC didn't have an open classroom... and apparently rumor has it the class after that is training up in MSP... long story short, little to no reserve time for newhires and rapidly shrinking upgrade times as the age-65 bubble bursts and regional captains pour into the majors with fewer and fewer QUALIFIED pilots to fill the void...

P.S. XJ's Saabs aren't being parked.... Colgan's older Saabs are being parked and replaced with XJ's more advaned models... down the road when all of XJ's Saabs go under Colgan's control, mesaba's certificate will go away and the turboprops will all be under Colgan's certificate, which will then be renamed to Mesaba...
