Yeah, that seems to be the general consensus. Would you suggest moving if it meant a quicker upgrade? We've prepared for that eventuality, just wondering if it's actually worth it.

Spirit asks for a verification code "provided by your airline" to list for the jumpseat online. Does anyone know where I might find Mesa's code?

YV is our airline code. Lots of gate agents need this/don't know it.

I was with Mesa for ten years before I got fed up and quit back in 2008. At the time it seemed like it wasn't just Mesa but the entire industry that was going downhill, it was very demoralizing. I still love to fly though, and right now I'm looking at a possible crop spraying job for next season. I wouldn't touch another airline gig.

Your attitude is pathetic, and the worst part is you haven't even stepped foot in ground school yet.

Here's a little professional advice for you FNG, wait until you've been weaned off your flight school's tit before you come in here and try to talk sh** with the big boys.

You did not just refer to us as "the big boys."

I can't.

It wasn't a stupid post, it was actually quite telling of how Mesa is run. Just wait until you actually start training and you'll understand what that post was referring to. Just think about yourself spending your hard earned money on an iPad, mount, etc while looking at the bar and nice view that JO has in his office. Mesa has a great group of employees and that's all that makes the place tolerable. Ask any pilot from another airline if they bought and paid for their iPad for company use.

What doesn't make sense is someone like you who hasn't turned a wheel in the industry telling others on a professional forum to **** off, calling them douche bags, or simply making some of the sophomoric posts that you've made.
First off who the hell doesn't own an iPad already? If someone is really that strapped for one then maybe they should consider another regional? And I could give two ****s of what makes sense to you and what doesn't. You don't work for Mesa either, your a UAL FO which last time I checked doesn't make you god either.
