Yes, 9/11, recession of 2008, its been a hard 10 years for this industry.
However, for all the guys that are stuck right seat 5+ years at a Regional or regional CA that hasn't moved on there are A LOT of guys that did it right, (internal recs in order, networked, good attitude, etc) that are sitting right seat at a major and did only 3-4 years at a Regional.
This thread is titled "MESA" and at Mesa we are about to have sub 2 year upgrade times and a TON of movement.
The title of this thread is not "Most Regionals haven't had much movement in the last 5 years."
If you want to get in and out and move on this IS the place to go right now.
I'm beating a dead horse as I've said this multiple times but Mesa IS way better than Republic. My first year pay is the same, and here I have a chief pilot that will go to bat for me, not against me.
Mesa better than republic? That sir is a far stretched statement. That's like saying my turd is better than your turd.
