Congrats, look forward to seeing you. Just remember to stay away from the donuts at Flightsafety, that's my training advice. Might have to increase the max takeoff weight of the E-Jet if we continue training there.

Are you kidding me! That's why the moderators keep killing these Mesa threads. I know I have been a little immature in the past, but this **** sounds like two meth-heads having a conversation on the curb at 2:00am in front of the 7-11.

You didn't like the bro joke? I thought it was crafty.

It's crafty, if your in the Beastie Boys, Yo! The thing is here that Mesa already has a bad name. I'm not a Mesa lover because I have seen the bad. Maybe my increase in QOL has changed me a little. But still wary. Other than the confused, what I thought was a physical challenge. I have realized that blog arguing is pointless. But when peeps are Bro'ing each other it makes us look un-professional. Remember with the quick upgrades you will be a captain soon. I know 99 percent of Jet flying is easy. But you will have that night when things are not going right. It will take some maturity to handle the situation. 76 people in the back are hoping you aren't up front saying "what should I do Bro"?

Of course, I'm not going around bro-fisting people in real life with a popped collar acting like a college frat boy. I and everyone I know take this profession with the utmost seriousness, and God knows we gave blood, sweat, and tears to make it to the 121 world. We're not going to squander that with unprofessional or immature conduct.

But, real fast, I just want to clarify that the Brasilia is frequently referred to as the "Bro." It was a pun and creative linguistic redundancy. Not to insult your intelligence or anything, but I could see where if someone had never heard it called a "Bro" they wouldn't follow.

Edit: I see you did refer to it as just that on the previous page, so disregard.

I'm just saying people not in this career and mainline folks view these threads. I thought it was funny but also realize that the moderators have killed a few of these Mesa "Bro" threads. Mesa already has a bad name and there are a lot of very experienced pilots here that did not grow up in the "Bro" phase. That's all, you can "Bro" at the bar. (I do), at the gym, whatever. But when entire pages are "Bro", it looks immature. And believe me I know what a Bro is, a Mad Dog, a 3-Holer, Diesel 9, ****er 100, Tritanics, Jungle-Jet, Dork-Jet, Scare-Bus, Lawn Dart, E-180 and a death tube are. Been around a while.

Not trying to be a bummer. I would be the first person to call you out as a click it-lock it on an overnight. Just tired of Mesa threads looking like a joke.

What's your flying background? Prior 121?

I never understood why being a slam-clicker is considered such a bad thing.

Is anyone going to the roadshow in CLT today? Let us know what you hear.
