[Redtailer]

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.

350 million lawsuit settlement and 145 million losses later and those loser managers are still there and not in jail?

only in america

 

[CX880]

They probably need the pilots?

 

[redflyer65]

Two weeks notice on shutting the doors? That's a little tight for the passengers involved...

But I'm sure JO could care less.

 

[XPOO]

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?

 

[brokedash]

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.

 

[hou757]

Why does anyone choose to work at that place?

Overdue. Hopefully maybe we are starting to see a shortage here and maybe get a little leverage.

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!

 

[N4niner206]

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.

He is a dispatcher/troll, he resents pilots telling him to "just, do it", so he gets off on yanking on pilot's chains. He is the dispatch version of Genny Lee.
P.S. Mesa does suck, just like every other regional does.

Hey no argument here... and I don't debate that certain aspects make Mesa one of the less desirable ones. But its funny... if XpoO's employer is soooo much better, its pathetic that its such a priority for him to criticize others... especially Mesa, if its so bad. One word comes to mind... insecurity. But I can't figure out why.

I don't see too many Mesa pilots bashing or trolling SkyWest forums. So where does all of his hatred come from? If someone dares post something positive about Mesa on a Mesa thread, he seems to find it his duty to try to piss on it.

Did you work here at one time and leave bitter? Interview and get shot down? There must be some reason... otherwise its just pathetic.

 

[XPOO]

It's a Mesa thread, this is FlightInfo, it wouldn't have been complete without a Mesa Sucks post. I was just keeping order in the universe. You can stop feeling special now. Hopefully the company JO is paying to do all your E175 work gets the job done right and on time. Funny, he will pay top dollar to an outside company to do your company's work, but not his own employees. Guess he doesn't trust you guys?

PBR, it had to really hurt your ego when you hit that age where the FOs were starting to get all the aisle donkeys to come to their room on the overnights. I feel for ya buddy, no one outside of the regional industry wants to be with a regional pilot and now you've lost your only means to the young bucks.

Sorry xpoop,
Ask around about the herpes in ORD, learned long ago that one doesn't "f" the help. It's rich that ", no one outside of the regional industry wants to be with a regional pilot" comes from a dispatcher that looks like Louie DePalma of Taxi fame. Except you are poor, doesn't quite take the edge off being a dispatcher does it?
I would pay money to watch you slide up to the 48 year old divorcee in the bar at the SGU airport and say "hey baby, let's go back to my double wide and I will read you some TAFs" Don't you have some MELs to add to a release?

 

[XPOO]

There's a bar inside the SGU airport?

And I would like to think I look more like Christopher Lloyd, thank you.

Well,
Genny Lee thinks he looks like Lurch, you make an odd pair. My bet is you Guys would look like a combo Danny DeVito and Tattoo from Fantasy Island.

You've lost that funny feeling, now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa whoa.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_gag

Running gags can begin with an instance of unintentional humor that is repeated in variations as the joke grows familiar and audiences anticipate reappearances of the gag. The humor in a running gag may derive entirely from how often it is repeated, the (in)appropriateness of the situation in which the gag occurs, or setting up the audience to expect another occurrence of the joke and then substituting something else (bait and switch).

And don't give me the excuse that you didn't know it was. You've been here MORE than long enough to know it is.

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? ...

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.

Professional comedians making a living of doing JUST THAT, and you have a problem with it? Sounds to me like you need to grow a pair.

I am sure he just resents pilots like yourself who think you are some badass who has to tell everyone "just do it". Just get me some coffee you worthless FA, get me a bug wash you worthless ramper, get me another pillow you worthless hotel employee...Good thing majority of pilots actually value others work. You really need to bail on the airline industry, you obviously have worn out your welcome on so many fronts.

Well, you didn't miss anything, other than Delta might be getting 88 B-717s.
