For everyone without a flow, TPIC is sort of what it’s all about.

Assuming TPIC doesn’t matter just because some guys who have it haven’t been picked up seems sort of questionable to me.

TPIC not worth anything? Maybe if you go to an airline where other pilots don't hire you. If you're stuck at Mesa, you may want to rethink the value in TPIC.
