Mesaba Hiring?

I heard through a little bird that Mesaba was hiring about a week ago so I threw my hat in the ring...

Does anyone know any info on how many or a potential class date?

Though its not the end of the world I was hoping to hear back and I think my chances are decent...

45 Multi
280 Turbine (PC-12)

The problem is... there are lots of people on the street with (current) 121 experience. One plus, however, is that most of these people, if on furlough, will jump ship when/ if they get recalled, so Mesaba may see you as a decent long term investment. It never hurts to try, but you need to bring your A-game to the table because competition will be stiff.

Get in quick; with Sun Country MSP going Chapter 11 yesterday, and all employees taking a 50% pay cut, you can bet some of their drivers are checking the want adds.

no joy

I actually hear back about a week ago, they said thanks but no thanks. But then again I know of someone else being turned down with something like 400 multi and 200 Lear time which means they've probably been bombarded by all the furloughed guys from the majors!

Oh well..

Forgot to mention that Champion-Air an MSP based 727 charter operator shut up shop in May and parked about a dozen or so aircraft so their crews will be looking also.
