We are talking about your earlier post. Pure ignorance.

Which part? You were the one that told Mesa pilots that United was taking their flying away.

Nah.....I think he’s probably right. I’m fairly certain he has some inside advantages if he is who I think he is.

I’m talking about him thinking he’s out of Mesa by summer because he’s getting pic time and doesn’t care what happens about Mesa!

I know. I’m saying he probably is correct about being out of there. Him saying he doesn’t care is just an indication of his quality as a human being.

I care about the pilots, but they will land on their feet. The other employees will have a harder time, but turnover in those employee groups are high to begin with.

My intent is to be out of Mesa within 6 months after my 1,000 pic. There are many, many options besides the majors.

Mesa is an unusual entity. They step over dollars to pick up pennies. Instead of paying decent wages to start with, they paid 300% so some FO’s can make over $100k and some CA’s can make over $200k per year.

About 20%. They are the second largest owner behind AA in the entire company.

But they are getting money back from the United Flying, and making money from the American and Delta flying.

The CEO of Delta predicts that only the wholly owned regionals (including CommutAir and ExpressJet), SkyWest and Republic would survive the coming regional airline consolidation.

If you’re referring to the YouTube video that was posted and quickly pulled down, that’s not exactly what he said. And his comments were only regarding regional lift at Delta.

Skywest and Republic won't survive.
