Anyone else smell a rat? Redeploying assets due to the demand by their codeshare partners?

Because the mainline carriers are screaming to add more CRJ-200s to their codeshare operations? REALLY? LOL..

Methinks this is a giant smokescreen for a botched plan and it's finally being put down.
 
Two weeks notice on shutting the doors? That's a little tight for the passengers involved...

But I'm sure JO could care less.
 
Wait...I thought Mesa was the best place to go for quick upgrades? I thought they were hiring like crazy and classes so full right now that they instituted a waiting list? What happened?
 
JO will park the 50 seaters but keep them on the cert as he will try to continue to base pilot vacation pay off 50 seat rates.
 
Overdue. Hopefully maybe we are starting to see a shortage here and maybe get a little leverage.

Why does anyone choose to work at that place?

So your fragile little ego can feel a little better about the fact that you work/worked for a slightly better crap regional, hou757. Someone has to be the fattest kid on the playground so all the other chunkies can feel better about themselves.

Funny thing is, I feel like more people are secretly rooting for Mesa pilots to fail in contract negotiations than there are hoping they can try to get improvements. Me thinks that's because they're afraid to become the target.

Ironically, animosity between pilot groups only feeds the management agenda. And trolling for opportunities to spout off "Mesa sucks" only furthers the divide between so called "brothers" and accelerates the race to the bottom.

That's what waiting applicants keep saying on these boards... That they're waiting to hear back. I'm not sure if it's true, but keep hearing this.

I'm not sure what makes you think that this suggests that upgrades aren't on the rise? I actually would say this suggests that we are feeling the shortage... Mesa is going to be hard presses to find pilots to staff these 34 planes coming... Which would imply that we need both captains and first officers. The best thing that could happen now is that our new hire classes start drying up so management has to enter into earnest negotiations on an improved contract. Pilots are needed to fly planes... And apparently there must be some money to be made here, so maybe we will finally be in the driver seat. Hopefully this is the beginning of that finally happening.

My point is why would anyone want to work for JO and his leadership failures, poor contract, poor pay etc.. when there are several other regionals (pilot groups) trying to bring up the industry. Nothing to do about the "fat kid on the block"
 
Mesa Sucks!

May be so... but I still find it disturbing that you feel that you have to constantly troll Mesa threads. Why do you feel so threatened by Mesa, XPOO? It's obvious that you are... but I will never understand why. Was it because the bully wore a purple and orange jacket when he beat you up in grade school? What's the deal?

Mesa may or may not have more than its share of issues. But I feel extremely sad for people like you who have to gratify their own egos by trying to highlight the faults and shortcomings of others.

I'm really starting to paint a picture of you in my mind... and it is making me kinda sad.
