That is unless you worked for aloha in which case my deepest apologies.[/quote]

i did not work for aloha, but i have family that is unemployed at aloha due to mesa. i also have a friend at midwest that lost his job due to mesa. oh yeah and my old stomping ground comair has close to 300 on the street as well due to mesa.

as far as those of you that took a job at mesa because it was all you could get at the time....because of the quick upgrade....whatever the reason. i dont really care. as far as i am concerned you are going to be in history books as the reason for the horrible working conditions in the airline business that exist today. republic looks like an average pay company now (remember when we all used to laugh at rah pay?) due to mesa lowering the standard so much now a company like rah looks attractive to a regional pilot. its really sad.
