Well considering that United only ordered 30 E175 and is leasing these to Mesa without any additional options, are you saying that Mesa will order their own 30 additional or are they hoping that United will order them 30 more? And what makes you think you guys can staff all these airplanes??? It's not going to happen.
Explain to me again how we can't staff airplanes. This isn't silver or xjt.

Just my two cents, but quite a few regionals are saying they are hiring due to possible additional flying. I just don't see Mesa having everything in order and squared away, especially with a new aircraft type, to start flying these in 1Q13. It's most likely going to an established E175 carrier...Compass or Shuttle.

You're always right dude! (insert most obvious eye roll ever)
Anyways, you have no idea what your talking about. Take your uneducated opinions elsewhere.
P.S. yes, there is an option for 30 more EJETS. Also our classes are an 100% show.

Yeah it's a much better career move to go to the bottom of a 3000 pilot list at one of the "super" regionals. 
The only people who think that's a smart move are spuzz and the 50% cash back girl.

I sure don't pity those in the training department. Those guys and gals are going to be working a lot of 7 day work weeks I'm betting.
Have they officially announced when they are coming online or what base they are headed to? Anything more about a PHL base?

Hopefully going to PHX where they belong! That poor base has been beat up the last few years. It would be super to get the displaced captains back home.

Question for you Mesa guys:
Any word on how many people you guys are getting to show up for new hire class? How many classes per month?
Thanks

Dang prior! Maybe the guy is just asking what the class sizes are, not necessarily the percentage that actually show. He also asked how many a month they are running. Sorry embraer, I don't know the answers to these questions. I'm sure someone will answer for you though.
