I assumed an 8 year upgrade at AE, and a three year upgrade at Mesa. I used only jet pay scales.
Total Ten Year Earnings: AE $435,000 Mesa $561,000

With all due respect you didn't do any of us a favor either. Especially when there was no improvement in pay, in fact an overall loss. Not that it's much anyways. I think mesa pilots should put this behind them and not even talk about it because it's just going to make others angry and try to focus on trying to get some real results next time. JO I heard promised something better in 2010 right? Good luck.
