30 E-175 for Mesa

[dowhite2]

Can someone help me with the math. 30 New Aircraft for UAL, 20 New Aircraft for US Airways at 10 pilots per aircraft = 500 pilots, plus hiring for 117 rules, plus attrition = 750 new pilots. This will mean that every FO on the property will have a chance to upgrade. It may also be worth noting that there were no concessions. Even during the chapter 11 there was never a word about an 1113 contract rejection. Does this make Mesa the only airline to go through Chapter 11 without reducing its labor costs? The best operating performance for three years and now 500 additional pilots? just saying?

Don't forget industry leading payrates... Oh wait, nevermind

Only one airline has industry leading payrates.

FYI Mesa has also signed up for 700mil. in additional loans to buy another airline. My money is on Eagle.

Thats a lot of $$$ did'nt SkyWest buy XJT for under 200 mill...??...

Very true, I'm just surprised Rene didn't claim that as well...hence the irony Gris

Will the E175s pay different than the CR7s and CR9s? Probably not...

When Mesa is the place to be then it's time to become a better place.

Seems funny to crow about no concessions after taking a peek at the payscales. Wow those are awful.

Let's talk more about why so many additional pilots are needed for the new rest rules. Why do you suppose that is?

Growth at the bottom. Sad to see the regional model is still alive and well in 2013.

It demonstrates that United has a short memory.

To be fair, it's CO people at the helm, and they have no experience with them.

My thoughts. Everything that has been said by "Rene" has been true. The additional airways flying has been a rumor for sometime.

Or aviation.

I don't think it's so much that. It simply means that UAL doesn't care about the quality of their operation, just what's cheapest. It's been proven often.

J-Lo doesn't need experience with MESA, he can simply ask Tilton.
