I came from Mesa. Now I'm at Envoy and my life has improved tremendously. It's not even a close comparison and my only regret is that I didn't leave Mesa for Envoy sooner.

I'm seriously baffled by some of this crap I read on this forum...then I'm reminded that most of it, like Skyvector said comes from people who don't work at Envoy and possibly never have. Like you. That would explain it.

Bottom line is that life is good for me at Envoy. I have many friends from Mesa who are also looking at making the jump and there are more coming from places like Republic. I am friends with a recruiter at Envoy and he tells me the applications have increased "five fold" in the past 2 weeks. His words, not mine.

No Regional is perfect...and having worked at Mesa I can tell you they missed that mark by a country mile. But Envoy is by far the best company I have worked at so far. Period. And I say this as someone who only got the $5,000 bonus as I was hired prior to the recent increase in which I would have received $15,000.

But it doesn't matter. I'm not looking at small short term gains. And I also know that anybody who still believes 1,000 hours PIC is the golden ticket to a major is an idiot who needs to get with the program. This is a long game, and now I'm part of the largest airline in the world with a no interview flow. I'm part of one of their wholly owned companies with the structure to match. I actually feel like I work for a real airline now compared to the frat house crap that was Mesa.

So all you big mouths who don't work at Envoy who just want to talk smack can rest assured your opinions mean squat. Especially from the fraud that is AG386 or whatever he calls himself these days...he has about 6 different screen names by last count and lied about ever working at Envoy in the first place.

I myself am a former "Air Scuttle" pilot. I do agree Mesa is worse than Envoy. However, what I also understand is I've been at Envoy going on 9 years. My observations over the years show that Envoy about to turn the corner of JO's wonder-world Rock and Roll emporium. Seriously, the guy is something else. I sometimes wonder if DP got his DWIs after leaving JO's nightclubs. His idea of employee Christmas party has go-go dancers, lots of booze, while their pilots scrape by each month. BTW, I remember getting the "Christmas Card". I remember some Mesa pilots doing some questionable things with that card. (It's a family picture, for those who don't know.)

Constant contract violations, lack of communication to schedulers for trades, swaps, drops. Denied pvds. The list goes on. The only thing that sets us slightly higher is the pay and iPads.

You mean like "take" being the verb and "serious(ly)" being the adverb? Oh wait.... Um, yeah.

I'm at a loss for words, finally. The stupidity and juvenile behavior here over the last week is completely mind boggling. I'd use stronger language, but the mods have seen fit to penalize profanity yet permit domineering psychopathy.

I don't claim to have clean hands, I've slung my darts, but holy ***k you people take the cake. There's no doubt that regardless of who the other players are there are only a *very* few participants the problems continually revolve around. It's an embarrassment and stifles fair discussion.

Cool, but have you guys gone paperless on the line yet? Or do you still have to carry your kit bags in addition to the iPad? It took us about 4 months from start of tablet issuance to finally going paperless here at XE.

We are transitioning to mostly paperless. iPad mounts are being installed in the cockpit right now. We are also getting QRH's installed in the aircraft. I'm not 100% on what will be left for us manual-wise at the end of it all, but our current iPad setup already has everything in it. Checklists, MEL, manuals, Jepps, performance manuals. It's all in there.

We have been carrying only iPads online for a few years now (under the voluntary program). Using our own personal iPads and mounts. I haven't carried any paper for at least 2 years, probably longer. I can't remember.

The only people that have to continue carrying paper are those who aren't in the voluntary iPad program. I see very few people anymore that carry paper over the last year or so. Maybe 1 in 10?

The rest of us just will have to carry both iPads for another month or so. Stupid, but it is what it is.

We dropped paper years ago. Or atleast people had the option to drop paper. Now the company is providing ipads and ram mounts. Coming in a couple weeks all we need to bring is check list ipad and the paper WB if computers fail.

Well, I thought I'd be out until very late, but no.......

Honest to god, I will try to reach you on a serious level too and not be combative, but disagreement is not combat.

The fact that he keeps hammering away daily is a problem. The fact that he doesn't work at Envoy is an even bigger problem. And the fact that his continued beating of a dead horse causes every single thread go kaput is the biggest problem of all. And where are the Mods in all of this? Nowhere to be seen.
I looked over my post history on this thread and saw very little of "hammering away daily" at Envoy projections or flow claims. I had to go back 16 posts to find a reference. The posts after that were all defensive in nature from several individuals with the same history, so that claim is not supported by the facts. This forum has a universal philosophy of not limiting anyone from posting in any forum, yet for some reason you and others want special control to decide who does and does not post on a thread with Envoy in the topic. Envoy pilots post on other forums and I don't see that same demand made elsewhere by others to the degree it is made here, if at all.

I would never dream of going to another airline's thread I don't work for and pulling half the stunts you do with Envoy. And the same goes for your gang of ag386, sayalt, and others who don't work here.
...and you are not playing a victim card here ? You and others also have made their opinions known repeatedly, yet you demand carte blanche to do so unfettered and unquestioned ? I don't see this as a forum rule. I'm sorry. Apparently, you consider questioning what is represented or defending myself from what can only be considered an onslaught of personal attack as a "stunt", but that can be viewed equally in opposition to you and others as well.

If an Envoy pilots presents the flow numbers as they exist, that is a fact. If you don't like the numbers, it doesn't make them less true. If an Envoy pilot can look ahead and count how many pilots are above him and use basic calculations to predict when he will be at AA, those are facts based on the current reality. Again, just because you don't like it doesn't make it less true.
Yes, you can make those assumptions, but others are just as proper in questioning them as that....assumption, as when looking forward into the future, there is no such thing as fact. It's done on other forums and Envoy isn't special......or is it ?

There is no other explanation for letting this nonsense go on.
It sounds like our ability to communicate might indeed be a waste of time for both of us. You know, in the past, one tack has been to accuse my of being a conspiracy theorist in some of the things I see on these Envoy forums, but now you imply the mods now are part of some group that has it out for Envoy and I think that is seriously misguided. Perhaps they are simply allowing free discussion of issues and topics and not succumbing to demands for censorship of people who have points of view that annoy others ?

In the interest of diffusing the situation, why don't we ALL simply avoid discussion of projections and assumptions regarding upgrade and flow as it seems to be the basis for conflict which some simply cannot tolerate ? Hard information that is undisputed and has already occurred should be no problem as who can argue with that ?

I'm trying my best to minimize conflict, but I cannot agree that some members demanding others be "run off the forum" like that advocated at EL occur here. It simply isn't fair.
