As to how quality the training is in terms of actually preparing you for line flying, all I can say is that my employer seems to be very good. I've consistently heard negative things about Mesa training, but that's hearsay of course.

To say that an applicant should not care or research things like the quality of training at an airline seems like nonsense to be. Who wants to work for a ****ty company?

Yeah, why risk your ENTIRE FUTURE on the vagaries of a training program which is anything but fair, thorough, and goal oriented?

I'd be asking this question too in today's climate.
