Never had a problem with anyone in mgmt whom I came in contact with. In fact, I spoke privately with a few of them about how far behind Mesa is compared to the other regionals. They didn't disagree - although for them this is their one-and-only airline. It's hard to compare when you haven't been around the territory - and lived to tell about it.
