I personally think the company already knows if we have the flying or not. This is just a last attempt to undermine the pilot group and put us up against all other pilot groups in the RFP.
If EVERY airline out there would take this action by our MEC and learn from it; mainline airlines would be forced to pay their own pilots to fly these things and everyone wins. Well when we all get hired by mainline..everyone wins.
I sure don't like Mesa, but I am not about to have my pilot group go against everything we believe in.
