As I have stated before, hate the b@$tard or not, he is a shrewd business man and unfortunately knows what he is doing. Every month the aviation industry states he/mesa is done, yet every month he pulls out another victory. Mesa has been around and still is because young hopefuls go to him for the experience and hopes to leave. Some do and some don't, however the revolving door does not matter, only personnel occupying the aircraft seats. The Delta suit means nothing but inconvenience to both parties and rest assured they will settle. Outcome, cheapest operator will win, and others will be bitter; song remains the same.
