All of their advertising says you get to pick your airframe probably why they have to pay extra for people to go CRJ. I haven’t flown with any FOs saying Mesa picked for them.

2 years + on property before you are off reserve as a Ca. Ejet and Crj. Fairly consistent. Some don’t like reserve. Some don’t mind. Commuting on reserve can be bad depending on the commute. It’s not globally bad. Also some say you can’t pickup the 2 and 300 pct on reserve. That’s not true either if you bid a proper schedule.

Does someone ask a poor person how to become rich?
Does someone ask a person who's been divorced, the secret to a good marriage?
The worst thing you can do is ask a fellow regional pilot what move to make. They know nothing outside the regional world.

Being a new F.O on reserve far away from home sucks,your sign bonus will go away quickly.No funny that you have to pay for hotel/crash pad while sitting on reserve.Despite no chances to pickup extra time in your days off. You will ended up flying about +500 a year hoping upgrade to CA in 2 years.Holding a line is a different story. You can make changes in your schedule that will fit in your budget.Seniority is all about it.
