looking for Mesa rumor patrol

Why you people want to work at that company is beyond me. It just serves to further the ornstine mentality that a pilot is not a highly skilled pro who deserves to be compensated well, but rather a blue collar bus driver who is willing to work for peanuts if you can make him scared enough.
Agreeing to work at mesa is agreeing to their contract, and all the harm it has done all of us.

Why should anyone stoop to your level?

ornsteinites. [/B]

NOW I'm offended......

It's Ornstinians bub get it right...

With all the AFELLOWAVIATORs, BEN FRANKLINS, and LOW KEYS of the world it's amazing none of us have hanged ourselves yet. I constantly tell my therapist about how I keep getting insulted to tears on a regular basis by my fellow aviation professionals, but all he keeps saying is "stop sufing that website".

I Can't stop.... I Can't dammit! I NEED the abuse... I NEED IT!!!

Mesa just agreed to take four more Dash 8s under lease from CIT. That probably means a need for another 16-20 or so captains.

VC10:

Do they require prior 121 experience for a street captain? Is that a specific position you apply for or is it just something you "get" by chance?

thanks

According to the interviewers, aircraft are assigned based on experience level, performance at the interview, and most importantly, operational need on the day groundschool starts.

No one gets hired purposely into the left seat. Everyone is hired into an FO position, however the situation at Mesa (on the Dash) has been such that by the end of ground school, new hires are able to bid Captain slots because there are not enough senior FO's bidding for them. As a result of this, they are type-rating new hires, and new hires are going straight into the left seat (if they bid it)

I hear that the same thing is happening / about to happen on the 1900.
