I'm sorry, but if that isn't flamebait..i duno what is. I've seen that several times and it just doesn't seem necessary.
The flak that mesa gets, while somewhat cruel, is wholly earned. In a regional pilots eyes, mesa is to our niche in the industry, what the regionals are (in general) to the majors.
Majors feel as if the regionals are taking undeserved flying, that should be flown by them, at cheaper rates.
Anyone at a different regional feels the same way about Mesa.
May the flying go to a more deserving, better performing carrier. Best of luck to all of the F8 pilots who are going to be royally screwed by this.
