Yep, it did. As I mentioned, usually there is a 90 days notice for termination of CPA’s (March 1st for a June 1st termination of aircraft). See what news the Mesa call this Monday brings.

I'm sorry if I ask what might have been answered already but in this industry there seems so so much change in too little time. I don't believe everything remains the same and yesterday's answers do not reflect today. I have two friends who were hired by Envoy within a three month span. The first one got a line out of LGA within four months and the second one has been on reserve since July at LGA. Republic and Endeavor went from having IOE within a month to a wait of almost a year. It all happened within months. This industry changes so fast. Again, I am not an airline pilot and I am just trying to understand it. C5 and XJT seem like good choices.

What has been the average time for upgrade to CA for an XJT FO? I've seen some posts where the upgrades for other airlines take 1 1/2 year to three years and XJT way exceeds that. Is that normal for XJT are you guys seeing any change soon?

Huge drops in upgrade time are coming at XJT. People starting now will be in a very good position to take advantage of it.

United owns the Mesa -175s, don’t they? If they continue to struggle
I’m sure united wouldn’t hesitate transferring them XJT.
