Mesaba street captains

[mainiac]

Flybet3, when were you hired? Are you "seasoned" with the company greater than 5 years, or relatively new <1 year? Not trying to insult, just curious?

Not too "seasoned", I don't think, because he was a real "expert" on the Frac forums concerning Avantair about a year or so ago.

... I agree, if someone comes as a CRJ 900 captain or whatever and people that already bid for it get bypassed, then that's not cool. ....

My understanding is that new hire FTI's do not cause for a bump in training numbers - what you see posted in the vacancies is what they need for bidding pilots. Instructors do not count toward the number they need (I think - correct me if wrong, especially regarding LCA's). My understanding is that they will "tack on" the new hire pilot into that CRJ class as an additional member to be trained, but doesn't count against the number needed.

No one needs to be an expert to know that avantair is the Mesa airlines of the fractionals.

from what I have gotten from seeing flybets posts, is that he is a new hire....maybe even a street captain from eagle......and he is defensive about his experience and already a know it all who will tell those of us who have paid our dues here at XJ his opinion and be rude to anyone who see him for the know it all he is.....oh and he is full of hot air....good luck in training, have the instructors pegged you as a a$$ yet

Hate to join in, but last post on this..
Definitely not a street capt from Eagle, as Mr BV, (FlyBet) was still at the, as he put's it: "the Mesa of the fracs", on July 06 seniority list. Hard to make Capt at Eagle since then.
I guess my "Mesa of the fracs" will just have to work for me, hate to leave my new addition on my house that it has paid for! Or my boat (paid for), hmm, what else...
Pretty amazing, as I started just a little before him.
Never mind, I'll shut up now, not nice to gloat.....

No not yet, it might take them a bit longer than it took them to pegg you as an A$$ that's for sure. I get defensive? dude have you seen your self on this board? All you do is get defensive and give people crap. Oh yeah, thanks for the hypocritical "good luck"

You two idiots at it again? Both of you are Idiots. Flybet you're an Idiot for pissing time away argueing over dumb stuff. And xjhawk you're an even bigger idiot b/c you keep trying to put the guy as an A$$ and you keep trying to come out as righteous. But I gotta tell ya, so far you suck about as much as Flybet does. Both of you get a life.

After reading this I really, really don't want to come back to work...gotta see if I can manage another month off....

 

[Beetle007]

I must say the Eagle pilot you speak of is a good pilot. We went through training together on the Airbus about 4 years ago.

Trust me, after a couple more months off you will get tired of Saab guarantee checks and will bugging scheduling for IOE.

First off, Maniac WAS hired before you, and his initials are not CM. Actually, CM was there longer than you, but I digress. Get your initials straight before you start throwing them around. I guess the "Mesa" of the frac's was too good for you so you decided to go fly lears. That is where you went right BV? What happened, the lear operator find out you couldn't fly worth a turd so you slinked off to Mesaba? I really feel for the rest of the pilots that may have to fly with you at mesaba. Where are you going next? The original Mesa?

Rant off

Just curious...
If Mesaba pilots hadn't signed off on seat lock language in their contract, would there still be a need for street captains?
