Nope,
We've been about 10-20 CA's short for about 2 years now.
The new FAA duty regs won't come into effect until after the NPRM process and that will be at least 6-12 months from now, according to the 3 Feds I've taken to PIT from DCA this week.
30 isn't really a lot because we've been beating the cr@p out of the RSV's for at least the last 18 months.
I doubt this anything to do with MESA.
