Looking through page after page after page on the forums (a dangerous place to be looking for advice ), MESA seems to take a beating a lot of the time, but people never really give a reason as to why, and that's what I'm curious to find out. What specific reason(s) do people have to try and avoid MESA? What reasons would there be to pick MESA?

Compared to Aus, I'm not concerned with aircraft size or base, it's a lot better than the opportunities back home, so if there is a reason to pick another airline over MESA, I'd be curious as to why.

Appreciate your time!
