To all the Mesa peeps that have a say in this vote. You should vote for you and your pilot group and not listen to all the keyboard commandos out there. If it is the best you think ( and the negotiators think) you can get then vote it in. If not, vote it down. worst thing that happens is you shut your doors and you now actually have priority hiring at all alpa Carriers. Something you obviously don't have now. Look at it as a Mesa Flow thru agreement. Personally i think AA and United did the math and came up with numbers that would be the break even for them. This is how much we will give for new contract, if it passes great, it's still cheaper than the alternative of letting mesa die a slow death and cancel flights for no crew to fly them. If it fails, United simply pull the 175's Mesa doesn't own and gives them to Skywest or Republic. Mesa Mainline becomes newly minted CRJ FO's ( 75% of them are too junior to hold CRJ captain) and staffing problem is fixed. Mesa AA planes are staffed and the CRJ 700's in IAD are now staffed as well. Good luck... Still say the best vote you can do is vote with your feet...Leave before the mushroom cloud gets too big...
