Mesa Bases

[my wife is hot]

Where are they placing new hires?
What planes are they putting new hires into?
Upgrade times?

No need to bash me going to an interview. I know the story...

If you have an ATP, why are you going to Mesa? Their contract SUCKS along with many other things!

jobless at this time, taking what I can get until something better comes. Please just answer the question. We all have our own reasons for doing what we do.

Try McDonalds... Better work rules and better pay.

They're playing new hires in SUX.

MESA - SUX.

/There, I did it.

 

[my wife is hot]

you guys are idiots. Is the purpose of this to help other pilots or make yourself heard. I think you leave idiotic remarks because people will not listen to you in the real world. If you can not answer a simple question for another pilot then stick your head in a hole!
If I walked up to you on the street and asked this question would you say MESA based at "SUX," haha man am I so funny you would say. I would look at you like, fool that was the stupidst response to a question I have ever answered.

Now, anyone have a answer to my question, or are we going to say 4th grader jokes...

ORD, IAD
CRJ, some in the Dash8 (DEN based)
Upgrade ???? thats a tough question these days.....maybe 2-3 years???

 

[hyperboy]

ignore em'

I am not sure what the upgrade times are right now.

Bases are

PHX-senior CRJ & Dash
IAD-junior Crj
ORD CRJ
JFK CRJ and ERJ
DEN dash 8
Hawaii CRj

5 year capt at IAD. Upgrades are a crap shoot at this point since I was told that the hiring stopped for a lil' bit. Many of the new hires here at MESA won't be left seat qualed (not enough flight time) for a long time. So that is why Capt can go junior at times.


Hope this helps

[Grey Ghost]

You must be a glutton for punishment to try and go there in this day and age! I hope you like 8 days off and no work rules!!!

Idiots? Dude, you're the one planning to go work at Mesa...how stupid is that?

Maybe the best help anyone could offer you is to try to dissuade you from making such a poor choice?

In all seriousness, don't wreck your flying career by going to Mesa. The majority of legacy carriers already know that Mesa is the place guys go to work when they cannot get hired at any other airline. If you do a little research on the company, I think you'll realize that you probably don't even want to attend the interview. Even communting for another airline will be better than living at base with Mesa.

She will be porking the UPS delivery guy, the FedEx delivery chick, and last but not least the Postman.
She will have forgotten you after you go MIA into the Messa suck!
Where you live again?

Mesa Sucks

I hear Republic might be ramping up again this summer. Netjets is hiring. I would consider Mesa a last-resort option. It is in a financially-precarious position and it has a terrible work environment from what I hear. Why set yourself up for disappointment?

Good luck.

Career-wise you might be better off doing something else rather than risking you tickets at mesa. They will tell you to do something to cover a short-term crisis need and then self-disclose the next day so THEY don't risk getting fined. Also don't expect to have airplanes which are legal to fly...up to you to decide whether their fly-by-night paperwork shortcuts meet the letter of the law on a per-leg basis. BTDT

Yea it's about as stupid as working at any of the majors right?
