Mesa pilots in PHX with plywood boards?

[Northern Lights]

It's used to bridge the aisle gap in a row to allow the mesa crewmember to stretch out across the full row on stand-up overnights. No, this is not a joke.

Surely you can't be serious!

I am serious....and don't call me Shirley!

I simply can't believe this! Mesa pilots sporting wood at work.

They use them for sleeping on "camping trips"

My understanding is that the company doesn't buy hotel rooms for overnights less than 4 hours.

I didn't know they were letting the camping paraphenalia be seen for what it is, though. That makes the situation even more sad.

So they really don't get hotels on cdo's? Wow, that's all I can say if that is true.

 

[jea]

as sad as it is that is hilarious!!! GO ALPA!!!!!!!!!

Where are all the Mesa pilots and supporters that normally chime in on the Mesa bashing treads lately? I guess it's kind of hard to try to justify this kind of crap, even for them.

It's hard for me to admit(I flew for Mesa), but the first time I had to do a stand up overnight and sleep in the plane in the middle of the night in GEG was the last trip I flew for Mesa. It was the last straw. So, yes it is true, and I wish I had something to stretch across the aisle.

Yes its true. I flew on Mesa on Christmas from SLC and the crew looked like death. The reason was they slept in the plane. Yeah thats makes me feel safe.

Yeah, when you can hear the crickets chirp, you know you've hit on something...
