Glad you’re settled down, it’s going to be ok. We are predicting events about a company that we have no idea what’s happening in the court room or board rooms. And we all saw how spot on we all were about the Compass / Mesaba deal, oh wait, that caught us all with our pants around our ankles. Woops.
FlayingKangaroo, I imagine you’ve been an ASA pilot for quite some time? To relish the demise of another airline, another ALPA airline for that matter, shows a pretty deep flaw. Nice FK, real nice. So maybe your smarting from becoming a division of SkyWest, bet that was an interesting evolution.
Tell that to Pinnacle and Tran States.
I don’t work for Mesa but I’ve read all the bashing for years and know that it would have been just a twist of fate for me to fly for them. There are many ways their current situation could go, and we’re all probably way off base.
I'll use the red font again so get over it. Time and time again I have said that I don't take and joy from the idea of others losing their jobs. I'm looking at this from an investment point of view and how i'm sure airline execs are looking at it.
I'm sorry I tried to reason it out for you but telling me to calm down is assanine. It's not productive to the discussion and threads just turn into yelling matches.
In terms of TSA and pinnacle; I believe those situations to be different. Both pilot groups were junior and both came with secured flying with little liabilities. Right now that isn't the case for Mesa.
