All you care about is getting hired at a place that hires ppl with multiple busts and who has an easy training department... I hope to God Mesa doesn't hire you you're going about this all the wrong way.

 

Fixed it--sorry I'm having wine.

 

It's not "easy"--it's forgiving.

Ok, Mesa haters, keep twisting my words--you got me before I could clarify what I was saying and before I could delete my poorly-worded post.

I quit this thread--too many d-bags. Bye.

 

He posts left and right asking ppl where he can get hired with multiple busts etc etc forgiving easy whatever he's a weak pilot and wants to find the easiest place to get hired.

i havent interviewed with them yet so i dont know what they will say. if the crj dfw base is true i admit it will become very appealing to me. ill let you know what happens cruz since you are probably the only one that actually cares.

 

so if thats true and i do get hired and i build my skillset to where im not a weak pilot and become an asset to the company then what?

 

I'd argue that a 121 is not a place to be learning your craft. That's what all that time building is for. You shouldn't be learning how to fly with 76 people behind you.

 

"Champ"? You mean "Broseph?"

 

maybe ill start in caravans or beech 1900's. i really havnt made the decision of where i want to go yet. but i dont believe that because im a weak pilot now that i cant improve and work towards being a good and proficient pilot at a regional. there is too much time invested to just walk away now. if i have to start small thats fine but to say that i should walk away from the entire profession well ill tell you right now that simply isnt going to happen.

 

Mesa is throwing darts on a board man. We all know that's what they are doing. Does it make them a crappy airline worthy of scorn? No. Some bean counter figured that x amount of gross newhires = x amount of net pilots and believe me, they've done the math concerning the attrition. It's a business decision not reflective upon the pilot group. My guess is that they want to get every eligible pilot who's not in the mood to do an astronaut interview in order to get a 20K per year job to come over to their outfit and hopefully they stick around for more than a year. It's a numbers game while there are still numbers to be had.

Some regionals are holding to strict hiring standards (like Compass); good for them. My guess (unless something radically changes) is that Compass will soon join the ranks of the mirror test unless they run out of candidates who want to do a traditional interview complete with Psych eval in order to make McD's wages. Otherwise those people will go to Mesa, GoJet and the like.

We will see.
