2) FO staffing levels (training bubble) to account for EJet/CRJ upgrades several months out could be achieved

Unless there's a big uptick in attrition or an acceleration of EJet deliveries (which could happen), base hopping might not work.

I'm just saying be cautious when doing that--the current pace of FO hiring and growth can't last forever, and "oh it's just LAX for a month brah" can quickly turn into months, years, lifetimes.

YMMV//just IMHO
Any projection as to if/when Mesa would stop hiring?
