Mesa 900 screwed the pooch on landing

[AdamKooper]

Heck, the USAF turns guys loose in F-16's and F-15's with about 200-300TT

Yeah but those guys are pretty much the best of the best.

 

[captain caveman]

No, it's 2500hrs minimum, for ICAO requirements.
:laugh:

No it's 1500 hours. The ICAO requirement is required for flying outside the states. If Mesa chooses 2500 hours which I doubt they do, it's not because they have to.

 

[captain caveman]

mesa is gay, ASA is gay, PSA is really gay, Chitty super gay, TSA gett'n corn holed, Does that about cover it for this round? Oh wait! Peenuckle Blows goats. At least mesa can keep both the engines goin.. dorks

Speak for yourself! We at ASA are definately bi-sexual.

 

[OPECJet]

That's a good one!

 

[Jetscream32]

Dorks that have no respect for themself. I know you call yourself Us Air, ect. when you ask for my jumpseat. Like I don't know; you are so ashamed that you can't even speak the words. How does it feel knowing everyone thinks your pilot group is a joke. Enjoy the JA and DH pay. I will never hire a Mesa pilot as long as I'm doing interviews, promise.

That has to be one of the biggest loads of crap I have ever heard. So I take it that you have a jumpseater on every leg you fly and they are all Mesa pilots? Maybe your head was too far up your own arse believing that you are a high and mighty interviewer that you didn't hear them say USAIR EXPRESS. Do you have the same hard feelings when asking for a jumpseat on a Mesa plane? I bet your attitude would change if it was you trying to get on one of our flights. I'm o.k. with the fact that you can generalize and stereotype every single one of our 1800+ pilots as a joke. But are you comfortable knowing that you single yourself out as a complete idiot by posting dribble like this?

Why would anyone, Mesa or otherwise, want to work at your company if it's filled with people like you whom refuse to educate themselves about a person but would rather make a sweeping generalization about them based on a previous employer.

You, sir get my official DORK of the month award. Your beanie hat with propeller is on its way.

ya got me there, haha good one man!

Wow. Nice posturing. Mesa isn't exactly the shameful place that you would like to pretend it is. It's a regional job. And who appointed you to represent "everyone" since "everyone thinks" our pilot group is a joke. You still at Comair? I haven't a thing against Comair, and I have a few buddies there, but don't hold your breath for an opportunity to deny a Mesa pilot a job. There's no mass exodus of us knocking on your door for work.

Oh, and not to be picky but someone in your esteemed "interviewer" position should know that it is themselves.

9rj9 - Do you work at Comair? What are you guys hiring for gate agent or something? I know anyone that is beating down the doors to work their, whats your upgrade - 6 years JFK / 9 years MCO. Dont lie i have plenty of friends at Comair, and they all have a better attitude than you. And don't have a problem with Mesa guys. I know guys that are just getting back from furlough. I know lots of Mesa guys no one claims to work for US Air (may be Jets 4 Jobs - ?). But i did use to have Wisky guys that claimed to work for UAL when asking for the jumpseat.

More editing needed!

About the US Air claims…

I’ve had (one more than one occasion) someone tell me, "my buddy is a Pilot US Airways." "He’s only 23 years old!" “Wow,” I say “he must have started for them when he was 10 years old!”

That’s just funny to me because no one knows who they are flying on. I think When Mesa buys Comair, he he, they could change the name to “Your All Going to Die” and no one would catch it in the FA’s little speech!

My mom tells people I work for Conair.

 

[Cloudroller]

Wsurf you look really small in your picture.

Clyde you crazy. When I say Comair, people aske "like that one movie?"

 

[blzr]

I know a pilot who flew A320 at less than 500 TT and less than 30ME. He's still flying...and flying good...hours have nothing to do with quality...except in your own personal experience...

And how about those two VERY experienced FedEx MD11 pilots who decided to land on a screwey approach...and crashed - the entire airplane burned to ground...

I'd like your opinion on that. But, I have a feeling you don't even know about it, otherwise you're have turned in a less condescending comment!

Bunny

You are right, everyone can mess up, but Mesa seems to do it more than others...

"Go around is not an option" so set the parking brake so when we touch down we'll stop sooner.

 

[Jetscream32]

Care to back that up with facts or are you just adding fuel to the fire?

 

[WSurf]

Wsurf you look really small in your picture.

Yea, but my penis is the size of your arm!! Look out!!

 

[Cloudroller]

Well then your penis is really scary looking and tan. i dont know where you fit it all, i guess you tuck it under or something. Please dont try to explain where you hide it, we will just leave it at that.

Back to the "Mesa 900 screwed the pooch on flare" Its pretty stupid that anyone would judge for doing a go around. Especially with out being in the cockpit. Jetpipe how do you know they did not recieve a landing gear disagee caution or something else that you would probably go a round for? Have you ever flown the 900? It does not flair like the 200 or the 700.

 

[OPECJet]

flair? Are we in Office Space? I'd rather not talk about my flair.....

 

[grog_sit_reserv]

They probably just blew it. Then, they did a go-around. Then, they came back and landed safely.

My favorite part is that we're up to 6 pages now. Just making my contribution, let's get it to 7. Hey WSurf, how far did that windbreaker thread go?

 

[Taco Rocket]

None of you numbnuts have considered the possiblity that someone was doing IOE in the aircraft.... but then again you geniusessss never required training I assume....

 

[Jack Mehoff]

training is for bras! page 7 here we come

No, they just have ejection seats and no passengers. Let me see em' come out of PHX on a +40C day with a full load and have to do a V1 cut.

I did not judge the go-around, I judged why they went around genius!

I saw those smacktards flare too high followed by floating 3/4 of the way down runway 23 in 0 knot wind.

If they just noticed a disagree indication 50 feet above the runway then stupidity would enter the equation. In this case it was lack of control.

 

[Cloudroller]

With out being on the flight deck you dont know why they went around. a disagree indicatation could happen at anytime. Most of the time its a probably a sensor fault. Reguardless your the stupid one for making statement about someones decision to go around. Your probably a young punk who thinks he or she knows everything. You need to grow up - you have a lot to learn.

Last time i checked the 900 descends with a nose high attitude, like most other jets out their. I assume you fly the 200 that thing lands like a t prop. Once again unless your on that flight deck you have no right to second guess or judge.

How did you get a good view of where they were on rwy 23. The only real view anyone has of that runway is holding short of 18L. You saw them flare too high? So you are an expert on the 900? Again, you have not answered a single question either here or when I posted earlier. Just keep feeding fuel to the fire, oh aviator extraordinaire.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

Did anybody see me grease it on 18R last week? :cartman:

As we taxied back to the gate, I could see people in the viewing area holding up signs with "10" on them.

(trying to help it to 7 pages)

 

[OPECJet]

I had it whipped out that day. The 10 meant "inches".

You and Jetcream are a true j@ckass mesa dirtbags. But I do admire you sticking up for your fellow mud-dwellers. Maybe you should apply some of that attitude in your next contract negotiation.

Unsafe gear sensor my @ss. Faults in sensors don't make the aircraft unstable when landing in calm wind. He or She screwed the pooch PLAIN AND SIMPLE. It was way too obvious!! Besides I was there you were NOT.
