Has Mesa dropped some UAX flying?

In August AMW will close and the Beech pilots will be displaced to the jet.

That will help a little bit, but they still have to be trained and finish IOE. From what I hear at Mesa that whole process takes around 4 months due to their inadequate planning. August 1st isn't likely to see all of them up and current to fly the jets.

Yea, count on 4months... I dont think its inadequate planning, just lack of instructors and sims

Is that all of the 1900 operations for MESA?? So if I understand you correct, after August, MESA will not fly anymore 1900's??

It just speculation right now.


However, Air Midwest has requested to stop providing service to all east (Aug 1) and west (Aug 19) coast EAS cities.


According to EAS, they can't leave those markets until another carrier takes over the service. Who knows how long that will take. But when it happens the fleet will eventually be cut in half.


All that will be left is the Kansas/Wichita system. After this no one knows what will happen. JO needs pilots on the Mesa side and AMW has them.
