As for UAX flying, if XJ is awarded flying, I'm glad there is good news for someone in this industry (except for the airline mentioned in the previous paragraph). Flying for UA is definitley not a great time...but if it gets furloughed guys off the street, from any airline, it's good news for everyone, in my opinion.

No, I think we are ALMOST the same. Not sure if you guys have trip and duty rigs but I know we have long call days and I think our min day is higher. I honestly think AWAC has the best contract, with XJT being our kissing cousin (kinda gross to think about!). Frankly, I think both of our companies have GREAT contracts that other companies should try to target to exceed.
A guy can dream...
Either way, congrats to you guys at XJT. Maybe a light at the end of the tunnel here...

Funny when people at GJ use the word "ironic" to describe a reduction in flying at TSA. Do you even know what that word means? Let me help you out....an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected. TSA furloughing more, Mesa loosing airplanes, is expected. However, it's not suprising that someone that is on an intellectual level that choses to work for a place like GoJet also uses words that he/she doesn't understand. Big words too.

huh? it's ironic because the airlines that generally do this flying are not getting it. With one of them even losing 26 50 seaters, and for the other 50 seat UA flying is all they do. Kind of says a lot. By the way, nice touch with go jetsss of which has absolutely nothing to do with this. If you guys focused on 2009, you'd get a whole lot of things done a lot quicker. By the way learn how to spell lose.

There you go with your wishful thinking again. Let me lead you down the right path since you are very misinformed: Mesa will find out if there loosing those aircraft on October 1st. Quit spreading false rumors. If it happens, it happens. Until then, quit spreading your propaganda.

You are obviously very confused, even after I stated the facts. I suggest you better educate yourself on the nature of the contract for those 26 airplanes before you start saying that Mesa WILL lose those airplanes. UAL has not come out and said anything about that. So quit with the wishful thinking and wait for the facts.
