If flying is so much down in October, as "know_it_all" Pangolin was claiming all these weeks, there won't be any need for short term replacement of the 5 maintenance bound Ejets.
Remember, Company was going to furlough 490 pilots come October. Mesa has roughly 7 pilots per aircraft, so that would be around 70 aircrafts total not needed for the way over 50% less flying.
Now, why again would Mesa NEED all of the 80 United express colored planes in operation if things are so bad?
Pangolin claims to have all the answers, let's hear.
As far as I heard, there needs to be difference training for the newer FMS version in the SIM.
