Had to look that up. Riyahd? (Why not just say Riyahd?)

1. We do a lot of military charters.
2. Pictures or it didn't happen.
3. Are you sure it was us. Some of our old 757s are out there with the sun still on the tail.

It’s the soon to be N263NV, formerly HZ-AS16, of Saudia Airlines.

I would say, it's not everyday you see an Allegiant airplane outside of North America, but I saw another one while taxiing in OJAI a few months back.

Anyways, just asking out of curiosity.
Thanks for the response.

I don’t think any of our 757s ever flew again, especially not for another operator, after we parked them.

Those are not nore ever were G4 757's they are owned by another company with similar livery. They are Jet2 Holidays.

I see them in Western Europe fairy often. I think they’re ferry or mx transit.

Hey guys,
any update on current hiring trends and how the transition to all bus fleet is going?
Thanks!

Transition won't be done till 1Q of 2019 and they are overstaffed with pilots for the foreseeable future. They may have some openings coming up at Sunseeker though so cross your fingers!

You’ll hear all sorts of opinions on when we’ll hire again. The only facts that we know are that the company says we are way overstaffed and wants to reduce the number of pilots per airframe that we have right now. They also have no classes planned at the moment. I’d be surprised to see any new classes before mid 2019.

DO NOT COME WORK HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!! Our flight ops management is incompetent, grossly inexperienced, and completely disregards almost every section of our contract.

If it helps put it in perspective, nearly each and every single one of them is ex-Mesa. The Mesa Mafia as we call it, aren’t skilled enough nor do they possess the aptitude to get hired anywhere else so they stay here to terrorize us with the only thing they know and that’s the Mesa ‘**** on you’ philosophy.

They’ll say yes to ANYTHING that upper management wants just to protect their jobs, even if it screws us which it does 100% of the time. These guys could care less about us, our families, our pay or QOL.

The few people that say they love it here are the guys who only ever fly min guarantee and never tread into the murky waters of ABG. If you don’t want stress, frustration, and bitterness DONT COME HERE! If you don’t want your wife to hate you all the time because you’re constantly ****ed off about how you’re treated at work or you didn’t get the days off you needed due to ‘high demand, must work’ then DONT COME HERE!

If you’ve worked for ANY other airline in the past besides Mesa then you’ve had an exemplary experience compared to what we have. Please, please, please do yourselves a favor and don’t entertain this place as a career choice. You are a professional and there’s plenty of places that will treat you as such, be patient and go there.
