Long Time....
Wow, way to jump on that conclusion! LOL!
No, just the Dash 8's are disappearing. Mesa is still supporting the 'service upgrade' into jets, and isn't expiring. Waaaay too much good would come from that!
After flying the Dash 8, I've gone to flying the Dash 2 (DHC-2), aka the Beaver. Funny how flying a plane built in the 50's is making me 4 times more than one from the 80's. From life as a skipper on a 40 seat ship, to one with 8 seats, my QOL has increased ten fold!
Anyway, good luck to all....
