If my memory serves me right, she died of cancer years ago.

Yep... The FO was a new hire girl also. She was a older lady and I heard she developed Breast Cancer and died. Once she died the Captain Chick tried to jump all over her grave by then coming out and placing more of the blame on a dead person that could no longer defender herself.

There were some guys from CCAir that knew her.... And after I talked to her came right up to me and said, "Son, stay far away from that one:."

I listened to them.........

What is Air Wisky's excuse?

The fact that mainline works the ramp at most stations and mx has gone down some!

Check your facts

All there flying is CLT. And when they flew emb 145's they were awful. They definitely have done better with a smaller fleet.

Suggest you check your facts regarding the Embraer comment. For the last 18 months of the Delta contract Mesa lead in every performance category. Flying out of CVG and DTW.

I don't know why I even bother?

Sorry, I was only talking about when they flew for US Airways. Back then they basically sucked..... And Mesa people will tell you that.

Reading comprehension not your strong point?! He was talking about CLT based emb's specifically. Next time don't bother.

What's the story with the "go around is not an option" thing? My memory is failing me, although I seem to remember something along those lines...Can anyone shed some light?

 

[Flyguy1226]

I heard a rumor that under a new SkyWest INC. agreement with USAirways that ASA will get USAirways Express flying out of LGA?

 

[Metro752]

Does US Air have enough slots in LGA for this?

Long story short... Bout 9 years ago a Mesa E145 crew was flying into ROA on a clear but gusty winter night. The Captain's brief stated that since 33's now 34's runway has rising terrian at the departure end that a "Go around was not gonna be an option". She then stalled the plane upon landing. Impact was so hard the engines were bent, and there was skin damage underneath.
She didn't write up the plane or leave a note for the next mornings crew. Then they showed up, preflighted and since it was early morning I guess didn't notice the damage and flew that plane to CLT. That's it...... Kinda....

As for Mesa, I watched one of their mechanics speed-tape a ceiling panel in place on an RJ because it wouldn't stay latched in place. That made a hell of an impression on the 50 of us in our seats watching!
